Assuming the user will not be connecting over vpn, but is both remote and non-technical, how would you expose Jellyfin to them securely?

    Thanks. I’ve been doing a lot of research, and the beginning of it took a while to stick, so it’s good to hear I’m not a complete idiot. What “multiple purposes” are you referring to that would make the VLAN setup less effective? Because I’ll acknowledge that this could lead to two devices being completely compromised if I’m breached, but that will only cost me time to get set back up, as opposed to compromising personal devices on the main VLAN.

      The containers in my setup are running in a Kubernetes cluster. My Kubernetes cluster consists of 3 physical servers (one old desktop computer and 2 Intel NUCs).

      On that cluster I run many different things, Jellyfin, Plex, *arr-stack, downloader, Immich, zigbee2mqtt, home-assistant, audiobookshelf, calibre-web, Forgejo, ArgoCD, Homebox, Paperless, Factorio servers, Velero, and a bunch of other stuff.

      Because I run so many different things on the same 3 physical machines, using containers, then there’s no way to split this into VLANs.

      I could make a “kubernetes” VLAN, but everything else on my network would need to be connected with it anyway. All my computers, phones and TVs need to access Kubernetes (Jellyfin), and Kubernetes need to access everything else such as EV charger, heat pump, and the power monitoring in my power meter. Therefore I need to control my networking at a different level.
