Yeah, that’s what i have. I setup the two ports on the card for wan/lan and passed them to the VM. I could try disabling the firewall in proxmox.
Grep "nameserver” /etc/resolve.conf , shows 127.0.0.53
How do I see that? Ifconfig?
I have a managed switch. I’m a little confused how everything would be hooked up if I’m using a vm for pfsense and another vm for some Linux distro. I want the router and that distro to be isolated from my other vlans. Could I use the onboard nic hooked up to the switch to put the distro on its own vlan?
Thanks for the advice! I ended up getting a managed switch on amazon and an older dell computer to set up OPNsense. Can’t wait to get started!
After much reading today, this is basically what i ended up doing. Got an optiplex on ebay for about 55 bucks and a dual intel network card on amazon with a managed switch. If i can bridge my current router as an access point, i should be on my way!
I’ll look into that thanks!
I currently have a net gear R7000. Maybe I could flash that? If I got an old computer and put a duel Ethernet card like you suggested, what would the physical network diagram look like with that setup?
The reddit API debacle sent me down a Lemmy, FOSS, Linux, privacy, hacker rabbit hole that I will hopefully and happily never have to leave. My eyes are opened to a better future. I’ll probably be duel booting windows for awhile still to keep up for my job, but I have been able to start transitioning away pretty easily thanks to the hard work of linux desktop devs. I am so grateful for the FOSS community and hope to contribute myself someday.
I’m a little confused. I think that’s exactly how I have it set up currently. The problem is that proxmox doesn’t get an internet connection. I’m unable to ping out or resolve dns from proxmox. The rest of the network is getting internet though. I reserved a static ip in OPNsense for proxmox. Could that be causing a problem?
