I have a tiny lenovo m900 which i added a second ethernet port to and i’m trying to set it up as a proxmox server with OPNsesne. I’ve got the OPNsense VM setup with the two ethernet ports bridged to it. Everything is working fine on the network except my proxmox server doesnt have an internet connection. How can i set it up so that one of the ports acts as my LAN default gateway and also functions as the management port for proxmox. I’m guessing that’s what is causing this issue.

    Add each hardware NIC to its own Linux bridge. Add two VNICs to the opnsense VM. In proxmox gui, assign an address to the LAN Linux bridge for the management interface. That’s what I do and I’ve had no problems for over a year. It works fine with near 1gbps symmetrical connection.

      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?
