Hi, I'm new to Proxmox and still trying to figure everything out.
I'm currently looking for possibilities on connecting my VMs to VPN.
I created LXC and configured l2tp VPN connection there using network manager. It works fine and I'm able to access devices on my external network when I'm inside the container.
Here is output ip a from the container
What I would like to achieve now is to expose this VPN connection to other VMs.
Ideally, I would like that by default all traffic goes to internet/local network and only requests to 192.168.2.x are routed through VPN.
I'm thinking I need to create a new network interface and expose it to all VMs and configure routing in my LXC from this interface to VPN tunnel, but I'm unsure how to implement it.
Any ideas or pointers will be greatly appreciated!
