As of September 9, 2023:

  1. What VLAN IDs I use and for what purpose?
    1. #1: switch management.
    2. #10: WAN.
    3. #20: LAN.
  2. How is each port on my managed switch is configured?
    1. WAN - Ziply Fiber.
    2. LAN - goes to Proxmox Backup Server.
    3. LAN - goes to the router. (It has POE on that.)
    4. All - Proxmox.
    5. VLAN #1 to manage switch.
  3. IP address CIDRs:
    1. Home network: 10.0.1.1/24
    2. Gateway/router: 10.0.1.1
    3. See this on how I put Proxmox management interface on the LAN side.

Earlier, this is how I had used “basic” mode to configure the switch. However, I’ve now moved to “advanced mode” as documented here.
