Comment on How do you document your Homelab?

Jokes aside, I do keep some harder to remember stuff written down in a README.md in my repo, but mainly most things are undocumented

Guilty too. There are names on router- and switch interfaces. Servers get fixed IP from dhcp so is in the note field there too. That’s about it

I operate on the philosophy that it is better for me to relearn things that lean on old documentation that may no longer be accurate/relevant.
The best way to implement a safe connection to my home lab today might not be the safest way tomorrow.
Old dog, new tricks, etc.
Also! Your documentation is an attackers wet dream.

I do this continually for work as well, I approach every new project assuming best practice or approach options have changed. It doesn’t matter how experienced I am in what I’m doing, I still loop back and check.
It’s such an automatic thing I don’t even think about it, but honestly not sure if it’s because of interest or because of fear of being called out for doing something wrong lol
