I'm having no luck connecting to certain devices connected to my physical switch from the PVE shell, and other Ubuntu VMs. Here's the whole picture:
Modem -> Proxmox (running OpnSense & Ubuntu for an Omada Controller via Docker) <-> 2 Netgear switches
Everything is working fine from the OpnSense VM. I can ping the 3 WAPs (Netgear-1 ports 1-3) from any of the workstations and servers not involved with Proxmox, but from Proxmox itself and the Ubuntu VM, I get no reply not only from the 3 WAPs but neither switch returns a reply either. The Ubuntu instance shares a network bridge (vmbr2, VLAN aware) with the OpnSense VM, and the Ubuntu end is tagged with VLAN 10. This allows Ubuntu to connect to any other client on the network (such as both workstations and the at.home server). VLAN 10 is my trusted, unhindered network. Rules below:
My only lead is that the WAPs are all on truncated VLANS, and proxmox also being on truncated VLANS has caused some sort of networking problem. I'm uncertain how to move forward. I suppose I can check that this is the issue, by giving my Ubuntu VM a bridge to the unused motherboard port, and plugging that into my switch, tagging it appropriately, and seeing if that will get a response from the WAPs (which I'll do once I get home), but I can only hope there's a more convenient way through configurations.
Any help is very much appreciated.
