Took me about 3 and a half hours to do this. Looks good, now I need to get off the couch and begin segmenting the network for when my SO clicks on a green download button.

I'm going to profess ignorance about the spouse download button segmentation portion?

    I believe the implication is that the spouse is not technically literate or is for some other reason expected to be mislead into downloading untrusted or dangerous software.

    By segmenting the network, the spouse's actions can be contained.

    Yeah I tried to teach her not to click on links and stuff. She goes past all the warnings and enters everything. She no longer clicks on the rich Russian man get free money stuff or your computer is infected call us. But she still gets fooled by all the well crafted phishing attempts and it doesn't help that she is on every mailing list under the sun.

    Surprised nobody has tried to buy a house in her name, it would be a good wakeup call. I mostly did this so because some nasty piece of malware was able to jump over the network from her computer to my mom's computer and almost steal all of the credentials to her bank accounts. Thank God for MFA.
