When ready to move to dual ISPs the UDM Pro will handle it with 2 WAN ports. Then a 10 Gbit Ethernet link to the switch which will, in turn, feed the RAX 120 in access point mode via the 5GBase-T link and the LR optical link to the other switch.

The UDM Pro has a number of copper ports of its own supplying port density there, no need for the 2 Gb LAG, and the office switch will be okay doing LAG detail to a normal GigE switch.

No need for dual ISP networking for the foreseeable though, of course, as no installs are being done within the home.

Single mode fibre between the two Mikrotik switches?

Single homed. For obvious reasons a second ONT or ONT replacement isn't happening right now.

Putting the router in place there has had the added bonus that there's no need to have external and internal VLANs going across the switch which simplifies things a ton.

The lab box is listed as having 2 interfaces though it actually has 3 and only one of them gets to access the Internet, the others are sink holed.

Anyway that's my network building done. That was not cheap.

Various bits of kit migrated to home office. The Harry Potter room now has ONT, switch and WiFi AP and that's all.

The 4 RU cabinet has been moved to the home office where ventilation is better.

All is ready for dual-WAN now as far as the switches go. The switch ports are isolated so that no LAN device sees WAN traffic and, likewise, no WAN port sees anything other than WAN traffic.

Under stairs switch:

0 GE-1 - ONT - 1 GbE
1 SFP-1 - Empty - Future ONT 2
2 SFP-2 - 10Gbase-BX to Office
3 SFP-3 - Empty
4 SFP-4 - 5Gbase-T to WiFi AP

Office switch:

0 GE-1 - Empty - Future WAN 2
1 SFP-1 - UDM Pro WAN - 10G DAC
2 SFP-2 - Server - 10G DAC
3 SFP-3 - 10Gbase-BX to Stairs
4 SFP-4 - UDM Pro LAN - 10G DAC

Security - unless specified connectivity denied:

Stairs:

0 <> 2
1 <> 2
2 <> All
3 <> 2, 4
4 <> 2, 3

Office:

0 <> 3
1 <> 3
2 <> 3, 4
3 <> All
4 <> 2, 3

The UDM Pro has 8 x GbE ports of its own all on a LAN switch. 2 of these are a tagless LAG to the GigE switch in the office, another is connected to the Raspberry Pi on PiHole duties.

Highly not recommended to be done regularly. Hasn't been cheap.

Good for you!

How are you liking the UDM Pro? And how are you finding the wireless throughout?

From my phone:

The UDM is running test software which seems to fix issues. It's okay for right now!

Fun isn't the first word that came to mind. It's been far more pleasing relating the trials and tribulations to you guys and letting you enjoy them vicariously than actually doing the work. It was all pretty trivial stuff.

It's done now and in its completed state. Port isolation takes care of things locally on each switch and the respective WANs are using VLAN tagging

Traffic using WiFi goes along the fibre then back again but that's not a big deal. The 10 Gb link is only going to be used for Internet and WiFi and that's going to max out for the foreseeable at perhaps 4 Gbit/s: a gigabit each for the 2 WANs and 2 Gbit/s for the wireless mesh that I'll complete.

Just for your entertainment I can see my Huawei ONT's MAC address on both switches and I can see the Nokia 7750 SR router in the exchange for obvious reasons - it's PPP over Ethernet after all.

I've kinda soured to Ubiquiti after reading up on them removing the ability to set static DNS overrides by manually editing the config file and the fact I had to turn off the broadcast limiter on my nanoHD as it was erroneously blocking ARP traffic causing an inability to talk from LAN to WiFi clients.

Couple of real-time load snapshots of saturating the broadband downstream and also carrying out a LAN transfer - ensured that >1 Gb/s throughput was a thing.

Seems all good.

That's a Netgear R9000 (X10) in the photo, not a RAX 120  ;)
