Hello, how do you document your home lab? Whether it’s a small server or a big one with firewall and more nodes. I have a small pc with Proxmox and there I have a VM with OpnSense. After I’ve entered my VPN as a interface in OpenSense, I noticed that I slowly lose the overview with the different rules that I have built in my firewall. And I know that my setup is relatively easy in comparison to others here in this community. I want to have a quick Overview at the various VMs, like the Lxc container, Docker containers that I have in this and the IP addresses that I have assigned to them. I search for a simple an intuitiv way for beginners.

        I run nixos, so my entire homelab servers setup is stored in my github. I can rebuild a server and restore backups from that (and sops keys). I significantly prefer this to having to remember and note a huge bunch of things to setup a computer - this way a rebuild on new oc is only a few hours tops
