Admittedly I have not dug too deeply into Proxmox but its learning curve appears kinda steep.
its not too bad. i switched from esxi to proxmox about 2 years ago.
i run a virtualized opnsense with 2 nic's passed through and another 2 virt, so it can be done
Hey! I have been using ESXi about three year now. I have two identical NIC I bought. One for WAN and one for LAN. I also discovered I had to use the onboard LAN port (3rd port!) just to be able to access the web control. (Is that normal?)
Anyway, I want to move to Proxmox, and then virtualize my OPNSense like I have on ESXi.
I get so confused by how the adapters should be. Ideally I would love to have the LAN connect to a (dumb) switch, and provide Wi-Fi. But one thing I never tried before is a VLAN to protect the LAN from the Wi-Fi traffic, but still allowing some systems to still work like streaming data from the wired PC on the LAN to the NVIDIA Shield Pro. But then keeping the Alexa/Echo system on a more restricted WiFi.
Can I do all this? I’m thinking I can, but. The hurdle of learning vlans and configuring the new Proxmox (which I’m pretty damn new to) is a daunting challenge.
I’m ready to try this though. I have a 4G wireless plus WiFi system to keep the other half happy while I tinker to get it all working.
Thoughts/Tips? Anyone?
All doable, you might need a managed or smart switch though
I have 4 bland at home plus untagged all through proxmox and a smart switch
Notes about the switch. What is tagging? The purpose and where?
vlan tags, they make vlans work
