Is there a technical advantage to using a 192 network vs a 10 network like you described? I would've thought they're just addresses, still IPv4 as well.
I tend to use hostnames where possible. Maybe that's not viable for your situation?
No. But segregation into vlans has advantages. As this comes with new adresses anyway, might as well tidy up the adress space entirely.
In the end 10.20.20.10 feels much neater than 192.168.174.10.
But yes, you are right, technically the 192.168.xx.yy adress space works the same and has plenty of space for home use.
Ah okay, so it's kinda just for aesthetic reasons mostly? I'll take that explanation home any day ๐
Exactly. You could say it was unnecessary, but I think we have crossed that line a long time ago.

Going back a little bit, you mentioned advantages to "segregating into vlans"?
Would you like to elaborate on some of those advantages?
