Based on the learning paths and skill development areas you've outlined, here's a detailed guide on how to incorporate these into your `homelab.local` Active Directory domain:

### Path 1: Network Security Specialist

1. Create a dedicated `Network Security` sub-OU under the `CyberLab` OU.
2. Set up a virtual machine (VM) with the following configuration:
   - Name: `NetworkSec01`
   - OS: Ubuntu Server 20.04 LTS
   - IP Address: `192.168.10.20`
   - Tools:
     - Wireshark: Network protocol analyzer
     - GNS3: Network simulation software
     - pfSense: Open-source firewall and VPN solution
3. Configure a virtual network in GNS3 to practice network security concepts and test firewall rules.
4. Use pfSense to set up a VPN connection between the `CyberLab` and `HomeDevices` VLANs for secure remote access.
5. Create a shared folder named `NetworkSec` in the `Lab Data` share on the NAS for storing network captures, configuration files, and documentation.

### Path 2: Web Application Security Expert

1. Create a dedicated `WebAppSec` sub-OU under the `CyberLab` OU.
2. Set up a VM with the following configuration:
   - Name: `WebAppSec01`
   - OS: Kali Linux 2021.1
   - IP Address: `192.168.10.30`
   - Tools:
     - OWASP ZAP: Web application security testing tool
     - Burp Suite: Integrated platform for web application security testing
     - Docker: Containerization platform for deploying vulnerable web applications
3. Use Docker to deploy intentionally vulnerable web applications like OWASP Juice Shop and DVWA for practicing web application security testing.
4. Create a shared folder named `WebAppSec` in the `Lab Data` share on the NAS for storing web application security testing reports and findings.

### Path 3: Incident Response and Digital Forensics Analyst

1. Create a dedicated `IncidentResponse` sub-OU under the `CyberLab` OU.
2. Set up a VM with the following configuration:
   - Name: `IncidentResp01`
   - OS: Windows 10 Pro
   - IP Address: `192.168.10.40`
   - Tools:
     - The Sleuth Kit: Digital forensics toolkit
     - Volatility: Memory forensics framework
     - Security Onion: Intrusion detection and network security monitoring platform
3. Configure Security Onion to monitor network traffic on the `CyberLab` VLAN and generate alerts for suspicious activities.
4. Create a shared folder named `IncidentResp` in the `Lab Data` share on the NAS for storing incident response reports, digital evidence, and case documentation.

### Path 4: Malware Analyst and Reverse Engineering

1. Create a dedicated `MalwareAnalysis` sub-OU under the `CyberLab` OU.
2. Set up a VM with the following configuration:
   - Name: `MalwareAnalysis01`
   - OS: Windows 10 Pro
   - IP Address: `192.168.10.50`
   - Tools:
     - Ghidra: Software reverse engineering tool
     - Malwarebytes: Anti-malware software
     - REMnux: Linux toolkit for reverse-engineering and analyzing malware
3. Use Ghidra and REMnux to analyze malware samples and develop defense strategies.
4. Create a shared folder named `MalwareAnalysis` in the `Lab Data` share on the NAS for storing malware samples, analysis reports, and reverse engineering projects.
