I was gifted a new Raspberry Pi. I already have a previous pihole setup and now looking for other ideas to run on my network.

I was considering a network monitoring tool. Any other suggestions?

    Proxmox Setup:
    - Specs:
    - 128GB RAM DDR5 6000mhz (non-ECC, planning to upgrade soon)
    - AMD 7950X3D
    - RTX 4090 & RTX 4060ti

    - Current VMs:
    - Windows 11 LTSC (RTX 4090 passthrough): For Assetto Corsa in VR.
    - Windows 11 LTSC: Barebones VM for my partner to RDP into from an old MBP, saving her the cost of a new laptop.
    - Debian (RTX 4060ti passthrough): My daily driver.
    - Windows 11 LTSC: Work VM (imo work is not the place to be tinkering, the office is on Windows so I’d better just join in).
    - Windows 11 LTSC: For League of Legends, though I’m struggling with Vanguard… perhaps a blessing in disguise.
    - Arch (RTX 4060ti passthrough): For those rare moments when I crave the bleeding edge (less frequent as I get older).

    RPi
    - YunoHost:
    - GlitchSoc (modded Mastodon)
    - GitLab: For my Git repositories.
    - LinkStack: Repository of all my public-facing projects.
    - BookStack: For publishing study guides and my PhD work.
    - Docker:
    - Jellyfin Stack: Including all the ‘arr’ services (too many to list/remember).

    Network Infrastructure:
    - Network: Isolated VLANs, some tunneling through public VPNs (think ExpressVPN) and others through a private VPS. Not going to go into too much detail here (security through obscurity and all that)

    All this is running on a 25/10 Internet connection on DynamicIP, reverse proxies, DDNS and a QoS router was a lifesaver.
