After a lot of research and YouTube videos, I have come up with the following design for a home networking system in a home we are building. My objectives are to isolate the Personal PC network from the "household" (security, household, video) networks in case any of the connected devices were to be hacked. This would protect all of our personal/financial information from any intrusion. I also want to control settings, etc. from the Personal PC network which means I will need to access the other networks without allowing them to access the Personal PC network. I also want our personal PCs to receive all alerts, messages, etc. from the "household" networks. We also plan to have iPads for controlling the "household" networks, particularly the appliance apps, lighting, HVAC, and video cameras. We are both retired so this is our LAST home ...
I would appreciate any comments, advice or suggestions. I realize that the symbols are not the technically correct ones but that's because I am not a technical expert. Also, we will be having this wired and installed by technicians who have experience in this area. Finally, I am not sure exactly where I should be using a router or a switch so, any recommendations on that point would also be appreciated.
