Help with initial network setup

[Trusoft]

I have a been supplied with a ProxMox setup that I need to configure and I am finding guides but I am confused

I have it all setup for me by the provider, I am moving from ESXi and want to replicate the setup (as close as possible)
The current server has 5 public IP's 1 is the ESXI GUI and the other 4 are linked and firewall controlled by pfSense to 2 other VM's 3 in total

The provider has setup the GUI access using a bridge for one of the IP's but I don't understand what I need to do for the other 4 IP's that pfSense will control

Can someone possibly explain what I need to add here to make these 4 IP's usable in ProxMox, I am sure I can setup pfSense once this bit is done as I can use my current pfSense and re-create the rules.
I am assuming eth0 is the network connection for the WAN and eth1 is the LAN but unsure how the public IP's are linked.

The old pfSense setup has WAN and LAN


This is a learning experience for me I was hoping was not going to be that bad but I was mistaken.

Any help would be appreciated, or link to some guide that explains it well enough.

I have enabled the datacenter level firewall to only allow access from my IP for the moment and I suspect I turn this off once pfSense is up and running
pfSense VM is installed and just needs to be configured (and network hardware)

hey,

2 choices for you. You need to know in advance that you want finally in your firewall VM:
- If you want a dedicated port for each public IP you have, then make 4 networks bridge in your vm configuration, with enabled bridge on vmbr0. Configure a 5th port on vmbr1 for lan access. Once that 's done, go in your pfsense interface configurator, and add one new virtual port with an public ip address. Repeat this 3 time, for all yours public IP.

- If you want only one virtual port, and use ALIAS configuration into pfsense, then create only two ports, one vmbr0, one vmbr1. Then configure yours interfaces with pfsense confiugrator.

NB: sorry for my english

Thanks for some input

1 VM will be a windows VM with multiple ports (80, 443, RDP )
other VM will be a web host 80,443,22, 21 and other ports
All the routing is controlled in pfSense

I am so confused!
So I have 5 IP's
x.x.x.123 is already created as a bridge to eth0 and a gateway so I can get to the GUI
I have 4 more x.x.x.154 , x.x.x.x.155, 157 and .143 and the upstream gateway is x.x.x.1

These all need to go into pfSense VM which will then do the NAT and firewall stuff

I am really struggling to understand the initial network setup I need
Do I need to create VLAN for each public IP then somehow link them all to the pfSense VM

I found many guides and video but nothing works for me

I have a Windows VM which gets a ip from pfSense but no DNS works and unable to ping out, totally lost

WOW, was so simple in the end, my problem was a corrupted pfSense config, reset to factory and started again, all working!
