Problems with port forwarding

[simone99]

Hi,

I'm new in Proxmox. I installed it 2 weeks ago and i'm not able to access vms from outside my network. i created a web server machine and all work fine using private ip but if i try to access using my public ip i'm not able.

my router can see proxmox machine and the vm as 2 differents devices. i opened the "x" public port on my net to the 80 of the web server but if i try to to connect to "http://my_public_ip:x " i dont see the default page of my web server.

proxmox ip: 192.168.1.200
web server: 192.168.1.25

can anyone help me understand if there is anything i forgot to setup to make all work correct?

It very much depends on your particular setup. Is this a home/personal install or is it cloud-hosted?

If it's a home install you will probably need to setup port forwarding on your router

as said i opened in my router the port.

" i opened the "x" public port on my net to the 80 of the web server"

edit: with x i meant the public port and with 80 i meant the private port

thats my configuration in my router. by the way before proxmox i was using a raspebby pi4 and all was going ok, so i presume is something wrong in proxmox configuration.

if the web server works on your local network, it should work via NAT

but it doesn't, i also tried to open the port 8006 to the proxmox ip and i get the same problem. all work fine using private ips but if i try to use external ip with ports i have problems
