Hi,
I’ve been trying to setup my fisrt HomeLab for a couple of days. I am pretty new to all this…
What I am trying to do is a all-in-one server (router, firewall, media server, etc). For that, I have a dedicated PC (128gb ram, AMD 7700, 2tb nvme and 12tg hhd).
I also have 3 NICs, 1 from my motherboard (2.5gbe) and 2 from a dual 10gbe nic connected to PCIe 16x.
The 3 NICs are:
enp1s0f0 10gbe - used for wan
enp1s0f1 10gbe - will eventually be used for vlans
enp9s0 2.5gbe - proxmox management / l’an (my other PC is currently connected here for management purpose)
My first goal was to install Proxmox and a virtualized OpnSense router.
I have followed the guides (on YouTube) and everything seems to work except I don’t have internet access on Proxmox or opnsense.
I have created 3 Linux bridges for my 3 nics:
vmbr0 for enp1s0 (management)
vmbr1 for enp1s0f0 (WAN)
vmbr2 for enp1s0f1 (VLANs) - not currently used
My router (in bridge mode) is connected to the WAN port.
Since I can't make opnsense work with internet, I decided to try to ping google (8.8.8.8) from Proxmox shell while the opnsense is shutdown (to keep things as basic as possible), but I can't ping anything (my DNS are set to google).
I tried to force DHCP (my router in bridge mode uses dhcpp to provide public IP), using “dhclient -4 -v vmbr1” (directly from proxmox shell) and it seems to work,a public IP is assigned/bounded to vmbr1, but when I try to ping anything, it does not work.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!
