Nothing special just wanted to share, I’ve been working on it piece by piece for over a year now it started with a few intel nucs now it’s got five dell optiplex micros a raspberry pi and a qnap nas ts251 and a ts251+. I’ve been using it to host virtual machines and to run game servers .
nah those are just to make it easier if I need someone to turn on one of my servers when I'm not home so they can easily find what I'm talking about.
Could you use WOL for that?
I could but it’s pretty useless as I would only be using it when I’m not home and my access is so limited to my servers as I can’t do port forwarding as I’m stuck on cgnat
would tailscale maybe help? don’t need to expose ports and could have one source machine on that network with it and send wol from there
That looks really good thanks for the recommendation
Also check CloudFlare tunnels!
I use an OpenVPN/wireguard servers running on a Rpi3 behind the firewall, once inside the network WOL works pretty good.

Most of the difficulties I have in IT are the Layer 7 to Layer 8 interaction.
Always a layer 8 problem!
