Just adding if you have any resources about how to go about this i would more than appreciate any nuggets you can share. I have a some networking background from college but its been about a decade since I used any of it so any help to point me in the right direction of hardening my network like this would be extremely appreciated. Thanks!
By all means man. Full disclosure, what I suggest is because it worked for me, so it’s always wise to research based on anyone’s suggestions and then choose the path that would work best for your intentions. In my case, I have a VLAN for my kids because their access goes away every night at 8pm on weekdays, for example. My wife has her own VLAN because there some stuff I have blocked that she wants access to. Then I have a media VLAN for gaming consoles and streaming devices, IOT is separate, CCTV in it’s own VLAN, etc. I you scroll up a bit, you’ll find another reply I just added. If you can tell us what you’re looking to achieve, and what infrastructure you currently run, I know some of us will love to suggest options to point you in the right direction.
On a separate note, I still want someone to tell me if there’s anything else I can do on my ONT modem to harden it even more.
