# 🧠 Ced’s NOC System
|
||
|
||
👉 **Portfolio Site:** https://chasedumphord.com
|
||
👉 **Live NOC Dashboard:** https://noc.chasedumphord.com
|
||
|
||
This repository represents a **live Network Operations Center (NOC) system**, not just a static portfolio.
|
||
|
||
It showcases:
|
||
|
||
* 📊 **Ced’s NOC Dashboard** (real system monitoring)
|
||
* 🧠 **HomeLab Infrastructure** (HA virtualization, VLANs, services)
|
||
* ☸️ **K3s Cluster** (distributed compute)
|
||
* 📡 **APRS iGate (RF Edge System)**

|
||
* Network segmentation
|
||
* RF edge system status
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||

# 🧠 Featured System — Ced’s NOC (Network Operations Center)
|
||
|
||
A real-time monitoring and observability platform built on top of my homelab infrastructure.
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## 🔍 What it demonstrates:
|
||
|
||
* Live system monitoring (services, nodes, edge systems)
|
||
* Infrastructure visibility across VLANs and clusters
|
||
* Service health tracking (latency, uptime, status)
|
||
* Real data ingestion (NOT simulated)
|
||
* Dashboard design for operational awareness
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## ⚙️ Monitoring Stack:
|
||
|
||
* Grafana (Visualization)
|
||
* Prometheus (Metrics collection)
|
||
* Blackbox Exporter (Service uptime & latency checks)
|
||
* Uptime Kuma (External monitoring layer)
|
||
|
||
👉 This is the **core system** that ties everything together.

# 🧱 Foundation — Ced’s Home Lab (Infrastructure + Monitoring)
|
||
|
||
Real-world environment used to simulate production systems and host services.
|
||
|
||
This is the backbone of Ced’s NOC — where all systems, services, and monitoring originate.
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## ⚙️ Core Infrastructure
|
||
|
||
* **Proxmox HA Cluster (High Availability Virtualization)**
|
||
* K3s Kubernetes cluster (Raspberry Pi - 12 nodes)
|
||
* TrueNAS storage system
|
||
* Docker / containerized workloads
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## 🌐 Networking Layer
|
||
|
||
* VLAN segmentation
|
||
- Main Network
|
||
- IoT Network
|
||
- HomeLab Network (10.10.30.0/24)
|
||
- Guest Network
|
||
|
||
* Nginx Proxy Manager (external access layer)
|
||
* Cloudflare Tunnels (secure remote access)
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## 📊 Monitoring Stack (LIVE)
|
||
|
||
* Grafana (Dashboards)
|
||
* Prometheus (Metrics)
|
||
* Blackbox Exporter (Service Monitoring)
|
||
* Uptime Kuma (External Monitoring)
|
||
|
||
👉 The NOC dashboard is built directly on top of this environment.

# 📡 Edge System — APRS iGate (RF → Internet Gateway)
|
||
|
||
A real-world RF system that feeds live data into infrastructure.
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## ⚙️ System Components
|
||
|
||
* Raspberry Pi + Direwolf APRS TNC
|
||
* Audio chain tuning (critical for decode accuracy)
|
||
* APRS-IS integration
|
||
* Real beacon ingestion from handheld radios
|
||
|
||
🔗 **Project:**
|
||
https://github.com/ced4568/ceds-aprs-igate
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## 🔥 Key Insight
|
||
|
||
This system bridges:
|
||
|
||
```text
|
||
RF radio signals → Raspberry Pi / Direwolf → APRS-IS → Digital Infrastructure
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## 🎯 Key Tuning Insight
|
||
|
||
* Target audio level: **~50–60**
|
||
* Too high → clipping / decode failure
|
||
* Too low → missed packets
|
||
|
||
This was tuned using:
|
||
|
||
* Direwolf audio level output
|
||
* Real beacon testing from handheld radios
