As the post suggests this is a noob post so please forgive me.

The last post I made, you all were amazing with your suggestions and I went a different route than originally intended because of yall.

Currently in the picture and obtained:

Omada controller OC220

Patch cables

Netgear 8 port 1gb smart managed switch

HP Elitedesk 800 G4 32GB RAM

What hasn’t arrived yet is the 2 Omada APs and the cyber power 1000W UPS.

I plan on using Proxmox on the mini pc so I can spin up some container VMs and labs without issue specifically for education purposes and practice especially with security+ and network+ coming up.

As a noob, does anyone have any real raw opinions on it ?? I don’t have a ton of money so this was what I could get as a starter setup.

Also I’ve never used proxmox so curious on the setup and interaction with it. I purposely got the 32GB so I can have a couple going at the same time without issue.

Thank you!
