Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:

Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

No trolling.

#1 seems like something I understand and could use but doubt I really need that. The other things you mention I don't fully understand what they are and since you say I probably don't need to worry about them then I won't.
I believe I'll need to use a second port to add an ePOE hub for a few cameras though.
Thank you!
I would segregate the CCTV stuff on a separate VLAN since most likely it will be available from Internet. Since you are planning to use frigate and not connect directly to each single camera, place a firewall rule that block Internet access to them (or at least don't add the gateway).
Thank you, I will do one of those things!
You mean a POE network switch? You can run POE powered devices on the same network as everything else, so you don't need an extra port for that.
Specifically POE security cameras. So those can be connected to my all-in-one router and thus to my server running Frigate? That's good to understand. Thank you
They can only be connected to your router if the router has POE support. If it doesn't, you will need a separate switch that has POE ports. Many POE cameras etc are sold with power injectors. You plug the Ethernet from the router into the injector, plug the injector into a wall outlet, then run Ethernet from the injector to the device. If you don't want to get a whole new switch with POE ports, you could get POE that way.
Great to know. Thank you!
