Hi all,
I read through a bunch of similar threads but could not find a solution that worked. A few days ago I installed Proxmox on a pc I was using for Plex. I set the IP for server to be 192.168.110. Everything was successful only I could not SSH or access the gui on port 8006 (connection times out on both). I have ran plenty of other apps with web guis and never had this problem. I am pretty sure that this is an issue with my pfsense. Like a firewall rule or something that I don't see (I am entry level with PFsense).
I got frustrated after a while and plugged in my old USG (Unifi gateway, that is old and dying) and swapped out the pfsense. Immediately I was about to get to gui and ssh no problems. Then I spent the next few days adding containers and VMs and such. My USG kept turning off an on (Power problems, this is why I stopped using it), so I swapped the pfsense back in. I did do a factory reset tho and reinstalled it, though it may have saved some info because I still see old logs).
With the pfsense back in, I again cannot access proxmox (ssh and web). I can still access web guis of all the containers/vms that I installed on proxmox (Plex, Omada, Home Assistant, etc).
I am able to ping proxmox just fine. When I try to do "curl -ks https://192.168.1.110:8006", the response is blank (no error or output).
Also to make sure this wasn't a browser issue (cannot connect with any device, but I see this question asked a lot) I ran
When I have Proxmox tcpdump port 8006, I can my pc connecting to it, but every line just ends in "length 0".
I am pretty sure this is a firewall issue because this only happens when pfsense is plugged in. Does anyone have suggestions on where to look?
