Hi all, I hope you are doing well. I’ve been researching for an answer or best practices but couldn’t really find a good solution or something straightforward. I have a 4 node cluster made up of small/tiny desktop PCs with each having a single NIC. Each PC connects directly to my home router...

Here I'm running latest Proxmox 8.1 on Intel N100 with 4 Intel i226V nics with newest 6.8 kernel. I have assigned PCI passthrough for OPNSense VM for this NIC. I seem to be getting proper 1GB speeds from another machine connected to same switch so this is not a problem. Left is 'top' command...

Hallo zusammen, ich habe folgendes Netzwerkschema: Der Proxmox-Host erreicht alle Endgeräte. Ich kann also über den vswitch (Hetzner) sowohl die Cloudserver erreichen als auch die VMs. Vom Cloudserver aus erreiche ich den Proxmox-Host, aber nicht die VMs. Die Routen sind in beiden...

Hello everyone, This is a question about possibilities, because I cannot seem to find anything like this when searching. This may be more of a Hetzner issue but it looks like folks on here are pretty well versed in Hetzner so I am hoping someone has some ideas. The premise: I am attempteng...

Hi, posting to ask for help. I've been reading a bunch of different posts and trying different configurations without any success. I'm trying to setup my proxmox node to run OpnSense as a VM and use it as router and firewall. The main problem is that the WAN does not assign an IP from my modem...

Hello, we try to build a PVE Cluster with a EVPN VXLAN SDN. The configuration for the VM to VM Communication is working, also SNAT with the Subnet Gateway is working. Now we try to replace the subnet gateway with an external OPNsense, so that the OPNsense can provide all required network...

This how-to-fix post to inform people on how Suricata crashes with OPNSense on Proxmox (any version) can be remediated. The advisories here may not be suitable for production environments, I trust you know this already. Context VM-hardware has Q35 chipset and uses virtio network interfaces...

Hello. I'm having a bit of trouble getting an opnsense virtual machine to respect settings for TX and RX slots of my network interfaces as set in the host. I have optimized my network configuration for opnsense by following many of the recommendations on this forum and other Internet sources...

I'm switching over from an Omada router to OPNsense. I have it installed as a virtual machine with Proxmox. LAN seems to be working fine, but I can't get a WAN IP address. I don't believe that my ISP requires that I provide them with the new mac address because I've switched routers in the past...

We have quite a few installation running OPNsense on Proxmox and they all run fine. Since a couple of months we also have one instance on a Hetzner root-server (EX101, Intel Core i9-13900) that causes me a lot of headaches and I still cannot figure out the cause for these issues: - getting the...

Hi all, having some problems which I hope I can resolve because I *REALLY* want to run Proxmox on this machine and not be stuck with just OPNsense running on bare metal as it's infinitely less useful like this. I have a super simple setup: 10gb port out on my ISP router and PPPoE credentials...
