This page describes a part of the old (V3.0) home lab setup that has been retired as part of this year’s rebuild onto Proxmox VE. The isolated lab networks below, and the VyOS router that routed them, no longer exist. Kept here for historical reference only.
Last updated August 5th, 2026.
The old setup ran four isolated lab networks on VLANs 201-204, routed through a VyOS VM (vyOS-labrouter-01) sitting on the vSphere Distributed Switch. They were used for testing things that needed to stay off the main network, without touching production VLANs.
What It Used To Look Like#
DvSwitch01 Portgroups#
| Portgroup | VLAN | IP Range |
|---|---|---|
| 201-LAB201-10.0.1.0 | 201 | 10.0.1.0/24 |
| 202-LAB202-10.0.2.0 | 202 | 10.0.2.0/24 |
| 203-LAB203-10.0.3.0 | 203 | 10.0.3.0/24 |
| 204-LAB204-10.0.4.0 | 204 | 10.0.4.0/24 |
VyOS Router VM#
| Interface | VLAN | IP Assignment |
|---|---|---|
| eth0 | n/a | 192.168.5.99/24 |
| eth1 | 201 | 10.0.1.1/24 |
| eth2 | 202 | 10.0.2.1/24 |
| eth3 | 203 | 10.0.3.1/24 |
| eth4 | 204 | 10.0.4.1/24 |
Why It’s Gone#
The Proxmox VE rebuild dropped the VyOS router and all four lab VLANs entirely. VLANs 201-204 have been deleted from the network configuration. There is no current equivalent isolated lab network in the V4.0 setup, see the main home lab overview for what replaced it.
