I also see that you want to use freenas in esxi.

No, I'm moving away from a dedicated hypervisor to docker/containers.

Used to have a Xen-server.

My old network is described here:

I have not made to much docs on my new one yet.

But thanks for letting me know :)

edit: I'm running FreeNAS10! This has docker built in...

Just giving you an update on that hardware buying rabbit hole.

Just ordered 2x SuperMicro X8DTL-3F mainboards:

(Here in Norway those boards costs over $450 retail!)

And 6x Xeon W3550's for $70 :)

I then have 3 spare W3550's, should be good enough futureproofing.

Let the fun begin :)
