Hello,

I would like to know if there a way to limit the access to root account by allowing only a specific IP to connect to it, while allowing the users from the Proxmox Backup authentication server realm to connect from any IP addresses since our PVE hosts are deployed at sites where their public IP addresses are dynamically assigned by our different ISPs?

Thanks,

Guillaume

Hi!
this is sadly not possible, you would need to use an external firewall to manage this.
