Over the last few days, I have continued to work on the structure of the website and the articles in the background. In addition to an extensive "standardisation" in terms of structure and layout, two separate articles were also created as the basis for others:

The UniFi Controller Management Interface enables the management of UniFi devices and the display of network statistics. The installation effort is minimal and quickly completed.

In this article, I described and updated again how important directories are placed externally in TrueNAS or FreeBSD in order to store data independently of the jail. So I can refer to it again and again in other articles.

Certain directories within a jail can be swapped out to (datasets) "outside". This means that this data is stored independently of the jail. The goal is, similar to Docker, to be as little dependent as possible on the jail itself.
