Welcome to the Digital World of PaHo-Tilburg
Exploring technology, networking, and digital fabrication in Tilburg. This is my space for servers, hobbies, and projects.
Discover My ProjectsAbout Me & My Hobbies
I’m a technology enthusiast based in Tilburg, with a passion for building and optimizing complex systems. My professional interest lies heavily in networking and virtual infrastructure, driving me to create a robust home lab environment.
When I step away from the keyboard, my hobbies merge the digital with the physical:
-
⚙️
**3D Printing & CNC:** Bringing digital designs to life using my Prusa i3 MK2.5 and Workbee CNC router. I run Octoprint and CNC-JS for control.
-
🎮
**Gaming & Hosting:** Running game servers for friends on my dedicated AMP panel, currently hosting titles are listed below.
-
💾
**Home Lab & Virtualization:** Managing a three-node Proxmox cluster, which hosts everything from Home Assistant to Jellyfin.
AMP Gameserver Status
Managed by CubeCoders AMP running on my Proxmox cluster. Data below updates dynamically.
The AMP game servers are available exclusively to members of the PlayingGodTilburg Discord community. Apply for membership. PlayingGodTilburg Discord
My Core Infrastructure
A look at the hardware and software that keeps my digital life running, organized by VLANs.
Proxmox Cluster (3x GMKtec M5)
High-availability setup running 3 mini PCs. Hosts all core services (Pi-Hole, MySQL, Nextcloud, Home Assistant, etc.) via VMs and LXCs.
View My Server DocumentationTP-Link Omada Network
Managed by the Omada Controller. Includes the SG3210X-M2 core switch, ER605 v2.0 router, and EAP245 access points across multiple VLANs.
Omada Controller LinkStorage & Backup
5-Bay RAID enclosure (4x 4TB drives) handles media storage (Jellyfin) and serves as the primary backup target managed by UrBackup.
Data Integrity is KeyHome Assistant & IoT
Running on Proxmox, using Conbee II and SkyConnect. All accessible via secure Cloudflare tunnel at mijnhuisje.paho-tilburg.nl.
Home Assistant Access3D Printing & CNC
Prusa i3 MK2.5 (Octoprint) and Workbee CNC (CNC-JS). Used for various personal and custom hardware projects.
Fabrication ZoneUptime Kuma & Nginx PM
Uptime Kuma monitors service health. Nginx Proxy Manager handles secure reverse proxies for all services, including Cloudflare DNS.
Always ObservingCurrent & Finished Projects
High-Availability Proxmox Cluster
Successfully configured three GMKtec M5 mini-PCs into a production-ready HA cluster for zero-downtime service hosting. Includes shared storage configuration.
Network Segmentation & VLAN Hardening
Implementing strict firewall rules between the five VLAN groups (Servers, HA, Main, Guest, Network Equipment) using the ER605 and managed switches.
Cloudflare Tunnel for Home Assistant
Setup a secure, reverse-proxied access point for Home Assistant using a CNAME (`mijnhuisje.paho-tilburg.nl`) and Cloudflare’s secure tunnel service, eliminating open ports.
Advanced ESPHome Device Integration
Developing custom ESPHome code for various sensor inputs and integrating the UTP-to-RS232 Ebyte devices into the Home Assistant ecosystem via MQTT (Mosquitto).
