Progress on AZ-900 & Firewall Update

Progress update for my next cert. On my Udemy class I'm at around 25% I'm on section 6 out of 13. Writing that out just made me realize how bottom heavy this class is lol.

Update for the Firewall the FortiGate is real!!!!

I might change the name at some point but right now it's online, I'm working out the VLANs and subnets right now for the firewall

I currently have a TP-LINK DECO mesh network with our modem in a passthrough mode. I'll need to turn them to APs and have the FortiGate handle the rest.

I'm planning to have two subnets:

  • One for normal internet access
  • Another with DNS pointing to the pi-hole docker container

I'm making a pi-hole subnet because I've previously had issues with updating my phone apps when using pi-hole. It could've been config related but I live with non-tech-savvy people so I'm doing this for my own peace of mind lol
