So after some testing I have settled on a vm bridge with the bonded ports on proxmox side. The vmbridge/bond setup still appears as 1 logical NIC to whatever vm/ct I attach them to but traffic is definitely passed through all bonded ports according to my switch lacp output. Thanks again @Dunuin
Sounds like your network manager is the next one to talk to. And I mean the network manager for the building, not the ISP. You managed to replicate the issue with opnsense inside of proxmox so it's not proxmox or the vms. It sounds more like the AP is managed by a WLC somewhere and has...
Thanks @Dunuin
Now I need to decide which route to take. I might try both and I think a vm bridge with the bond on proxmox side might be the path of least resistance. Like my container adventure a while ago, I just want to ensure that all traffic going through a particular interface only...
@Dunuin
Once again you got me on the right path. I now have two bonds working with LACP on my switch.
Next (and hopefully last) question that should finish my prep to move vms/cts from my old server:
A while back you got me sorted out on how to direct a NIC to a container so that the NIC...
Fairly new to this part of proxmox.
I have a server that I received recently that I want to install proxmox onto and move my existing proxmox "home server" onto this new server.
My home server only has two NICs and I dedicated 1 NIC to my ISP connection and the second NIC to my LAN connections...
I currently have my openwrt router as a container in proxmox and it is working generally without issue. It is an unprivileged container which I believe adds a level of security between the container and the host but I read (somewhere) that if I wanted to attempt a sysupgrade of openwrt within...
Proxmox is meant to be run headless so you access the gui from another machine on the same network. From the gui you have access to the console of the proxmox host.
Thanks everyone for the replies.
@Dunuin
The lxc commands and the interface suggestion did the trick. Now my WAN port is direct to my openwrt container. When connecting to my existing network it only gets 1 dhcp IP which is openwrt. The proxmox host still gets to the outside world but I...
@vongehlens
I was doing the same setup for my openwrt. vmbr0 was my proxmox host management and it was connected to the LAN side of openwrt. vmbr1 was my WAN side bridge and connected to the WAN side of openwrt. However, the WAN resulted in two dhcp IP from the "ISP". ISP being my...
@Dunuin
I only had one IP assigned to my host for webgui access. That was on vmbr0.
Like you said, with my current config I was able to access my webgui from it's "public IP" on vmbr1 as well as it's private IP on vmbr0. I am trying to kill the vmbr1 access.
Thanks for the lxc commands. i...
I am at work as I am writing this so I don't have config files ready.
Currently I have a server that I have been working on. The goal is to virtualize openwrt (succeeded) and use openwrt as my primary router/gateway for my private LAN.
I have a couple of ct/vms on the LAN bridge of openwrt...
@Dunuin
Sharing a folder from within a vm image disk is what I want to avoid. Basically i want to be able to access the data whether the vm/ct is powered on or not. Especially if it is powered off.
I would like to avoid data files being stored inside the virtual disk files if at all...
@Dunuin
Thanks. I was leaning toward creating a container whose purpose was to be just a server for nfs, tftp etc. Looks like I will still have to use bind mounts with that setup though.
I am reviewing the bind mounts doc page and going to try to figure that one out.
When you stated "export the network storage via a virtual network" I am trying to guess what you mean. If you have any documentation link that would be great.
Right now I have my openwrt router container...
@Fabian_E
Thanks for the tips. I have questions on those though.
I would use a container if I could but some of the guest setups I want to use/test are not advised to be run inside containers. Omv and nextcloud are the two biggest candidates right now for the use/test.
Using a network...
instead of passing an entire disk to a vm: Is there a way to specify a directory wherever I want, and then specify that the files to be stored there would be "raw"?.
When I create a vm and go to add another hard drive, it gives me the option to choose my storage location BUT I only have the...

My interfaces file has none of those items (up ip route) but all my hosts get their ip from my dhcp server. My proxmox host gets the same ip from dhcp based on its mac address. The containers and vms are the same way...mac addresses used to set the static ip from my dhcp server (router).
