- Synology NAS1 & NAS2 – Backup & DR storage
- Network Layout: 192.168.0.0/24 with static assignments for servers, NAS, iDRAC, and network devices

This configuration provides high availability, strong security, fast internal networking (bonded links), and isolated backup storage.

Tasks include:
– Migrating Odoo SaaS (Docker + DB + filestore)

– Migrating OnlyOffice & Traccar
– Configuring backups to NAS
– Testing all services after cutover
