Hi all! I installed the latest Proxmox 3 on a vmware VPS hosting service – they installed from ISO as I don’t have full console access. It works perfectly but I can’t figure out the network model I should be using and wish to secure both the host and containers.
As per the wiki network model the network ends up like this
They then issue me with a public IP for each container and attach it to the Vmware instance, it works well. Of course this means its open to the world there is no firewall, nothing at all. What should be the next steps here, is it simply a matter of hardening the host or is there a better network model for this hosting type?
