Not sure if I worded the Title right ?


Anyhow, I am redoing my home network ( slowly but surly). Soon everything on my house will run threw this network. Trying to fig out what If this will work as I think it will.

Will have VM host (ESXI more then likey, cause i have use it some). This host will have 1 10gbe, All VM clients will use VMed networks threw this.

The Clients will be
NAS VM 1 (PFsens) PCIe NVMe SSD (for Steam library & games)
NAS VM 2 (PFsens) HBA PLEX / HDhomerun DVR
Windows VM DDNS Gamesever (friends only)
Windows VM Other
Linux VM


Host 10Gbe will be plugged into A GS110EMX (2x 10gbe port + 8x 1Gbe that feed to other computers ( HDhomerun Cable boxes)

What are you thoughts on this ... will their be any issues with just using 1 NIC for all this ... say if they were all in heavy use. Thinking about adding another 1gbe NIC for the Game sever.

that is plenty of throughput since the GS110EMX is managed. your VM clients will all talk to each other without needing any throughput so long as you set them up properly. the cable boxes will barely use any throughput.
