Welcome to OzTekLab! I’m a Solutions Engineer with a deep-rooted passion for all things tech, and this site is where I document my homelab projects and discoveries. Homelabbing has been an invaluable part of my journey — it’s my playground for learning, experimenting, and mastering new technologies outside of the traditional workspace.

At OzTekLab, I share insights into the setups, configurations, and tools I use, covering everything from creating VLANs for network segmentation to deploying Traefik as a reverse proxy, integrating smart home systems with Home Assistant, and building robust data ingestion pipelines with Splunk. I also dive into security practices, helping others learn how to keep their environments safe and secure.

My goal is to make this a resource for tech enthusiasts, fellow engineers, and anyone curious about building their own homelab. I hope these guides and projects inspire you to take on new challenges, solve real-world problems, and push the boundaries of what’s possible in your own setup.

Thanks for stopping by, and I look forward to sharing this journey with you!
