Storage And Backups

NFS export:

Path: /home/shome/backups
Network: 192.168.1.0/24
Options: rw, async, no_subtree_check, no_root_squash
Mounted device: /dev/mmcblk0p1
Filesystem: ext4
Size observed: 57 GB, 2.0 GB used

Network Role

This host bridges the operational smart-home context across:

home-lan (192.168.1.0/24);
home-iot-lan (192.168.2.0/24).

The current policy allows full access between the two local networks. A future policy may isolate the IoT LAN from the home LAN and possibly deny IoT internet access.
