    I have 2 identical pieces of hardware, created 2 nodes (n1 and n2) and set up the network interfaces the same way using the 3 cable method: https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/Virtualizing_pfSense_on_Proxmox.

    Bridge to Bond?

    I need to have a Windows VM connect to the nfs server. After adding a 2nd nic and giving it a static ip address using the 192.168.2.x subnet, I realized it wouldn't work because the bridge is for the 192.168.1.x subnet.

    VMBR1 Dropping Internet Connection

    I added another NIC so I am able to have a Windows VM with a "floating" (change the IP address of Windows to have access to physical computers on different subnets instead of making changes to Proxmox and reboot each time) subnet. While downloading updates for the new VM, the Internet was...
