Hi

I have pfsense as a VM router.

I have recently bought a 10gb quad network card and am wondering what the best setup is here.

Should I keep it as it is now, Proxmox bridging the connections and passing a virtual one for LAN, or should I pass the whole (Or ports) of the card.

My worry is that by passing, I would be wasting some of the ports (i.e. I would have to waste 2 ports? 1 for proxmox, 1 for proxmox > pfsense, 1 for pfsense)

Any advice would be appreciated
