Overview

This project aims to provide the user with a puppetized lab setup. It can be used as the foundation of a home network, a learning puppet environment, or as a proof of concept lab for non-puppet software and hardware. Once complete, the lab environment will provide a number of services to the designated network. Each service definition includes a valid SELinux security configuration.

• dns
• dhcp
• kickstart
• puppet (puppetserver, puppetdb, hiera, r10k)
• yum repository
• build server
• mysql
• phpmyadmin
• tftp

The user must provide a default gateway for external access.

A companion series of blog articles, Puppet for vSphere Admins, may be useful in learning about the project's components and patterns in depth. Future beginner/intermediate/advanced guides are planned.
