Hello,

I would like to start working with home automation/ smart home. I have not yet worked with smart home.

I would like to do without all products that have a cloud connection or must be connected to the Internet. I would like to have all network components in a separate subnet that would only be accessible via a secure VPN connection.

Do you think this is possible?

Do you have any product recommendations software/hardware?

or any tips or sources where I can learn more about this topic?
