All hail redundancy
This isn’t redundant, it’s failure points with extra steps.
Yes. I see two obvious ones of Switch 3 and Switch 5. Did an AI make this? If so, it wasn’t a good one.
care to explain more? of course the redundant configurations haven’t been enabled, so you can see STP doing it’s thing.
if everything is done right, then where’s the failure point?
well how so?
Switches 3 and 4 are single points of failure. The other 2 & 5 are completely
redundantunnecessary.You can just use 2 switches total, cross-connect each to upstream, and do vLANs/subnets to isolate the traffic downstream.
Edit: if you really wanna do physical separation and you want redundancy you’d want to connect 2&5 to both routers.
Honestly tho textbook network with that many nodes for so few devices is already overkill for home, so doing that many switches is just… Idk man, doing full stack troubleshooting for an hour while everyone’s just trying to watch a movie is gonna do more hatm than good.
Whoever implements this should probably spin up a ticketing system for the house.
yeah true it’s a satire topology btw
imagine running high end switches and routers just for your kids.
@recursivethinking@lemmy.world did a better job of explaining it than I could have.
I hope you like eating rice, beans and instant ramen for the next year or so.
yeah sure
Still not a perfect mesh topology. Gotta modify those wireless devices so that they can communicate full duplex, acting both as hosts and routers. Here’s a screwdriver to get you started. 🪛
👍 but the kids devices shouldn’t participate in the redundant drama.
Honestly, kids devices probably shouldnt even be on the internet

CGNAT to be the rescue🛟📡
I have a great gif about using cisco hardware but my client image uploads are currently broken lol.
Just pretend I’m laughing at you with a totally not bloated ubiquiti web UI.
wish I could get those Cisco gifs
I’m gonna echo a sentiment I saw on the last packet tracer meme. Posting these without a content warning is literally violence. I’m having flashbacks to NET 101. someone should stop you people,
that’s the point
literally crying and shitting and pissing in my pants rn, how could u do this to me
come on what’s life without humor?
True. Without humor a person goes blind.
