If I understand this correctly, the bridge has the proxmox host IP to indicate that the proxmox host is using that bridge. For the VM and containers you can manually asign the bridges they are using, so that is not necessary. It is a convention. Thanks for the explanation.

Agreed. Althouhg I would like to understand why the Vmbr0 bridge needs to have the IP of the Proxmox host. If anyone can answer I would be thankful. This is a home server and my house is not that big. Plus the adapter has good signal. I have used this adapter as AP before in another house and...

Ok, diagram update. @bobmc I think we both got it wrong. That bridge should have no IP, because the masquerading and firewalling should happen inside the Router Container/VM. I saw this by following a link you recommended here in the forum in another place that I read when I was trying to...

Well, what you describe was the intention. I can see I got wrong the IP of the eth1 interface, as there is where I have to set up the masquerade. In fact, I realized that the eth0 interface does not need to be only for the host, it can be just for the bridge inside the internal network. So let...

Thanks for both answers. How would one do this, having vmbr0 be both LAN and Management port? I would still like to access the host from inside the firewall. At the moment only virtual and wireless. In the future I might need to get another wired ethernet adapter to connect wired devices...
