How should I set up networking on my rack server for Proxmox VE?

[luciaonmatteo]

Hello everyone,

I'm in the process of setting up networking on my rack server for Proxmox VE and could use some advice. Specifically, I'm interested in optimizing VLAN configuration and ensuring optimal network performance. Here are a few questions to kick off the discussion:

1. VLAN Configuration: What are the best practices for configuring VLANs on a rack server running Proxmox VE? Any specific steps or considerations I should keep in mind?
2. Network Performance: How can I ensure that my network setup is optimized for performance when using Proxmox VE? Are there any settings within Proxmox or network hardware configurations that are particularly beneficial?
3. Security Considerations: Are there security implications I should be aware of when setting up VLANs with Proxmox VE? Any recommendations for securing network traffic between VMs and external networks?

Looking forward to hearing your experiences and recommendations!

Thanks in advance.
