Hello, I have proxmox installed on a hetzner server, looking the firewall logs I see that
the LXC containers with firewall enabled are showing in the log the traffic directed for other lxc or vps.

All vps/lxc are on the lan virtual device vmbr1, on the vmbr0 Is running Pfsense firewall. All vps/lxc inside the vmbr1 lan are with firewall enabled.

In the specific case, I have a Nginx proxy manager with NAT from pfsense with 443 and 80 ports to 2 different webservers,
but in the logs other LXC or VPS that are not running webserver and are not configured in proxy for the traffic redirect, are receiving some time traffic on this ports.

Any explanation?

Thank you.
