Hello everyone, good day.
Thank you for your time in advance.
I'm new with Proxmox, I've recently re-created my environment since I've gotten rid my ESXi environment. So I'm learning as I go. (really love this product.)
I've just installed ProxmoxVE fresh of the ISO. Its a blank canvas so far.
I've reviewed the following forum posts and also tutorials to get better acclimated with how the firewall functions:
Link1
Link2
Everything up to now works phenomenally well. with an the exception of the firewall. Which I'm not sure if its an issue I've done or it might indeed be an issue with the firewall itself. So any help is greatly appreciated.
This is what I'm trying to do:
I want to implement the Firewall on a VM (IP: x.x.x.105) to only allow traffic from the internal proxy (x.x.x.102) I have to the destination port:8080.
So far based on the information I've gathered from the links above. This is what I've setup so far.
1. Enabled Firewall on the Cluster itself.
2. Made sure the firewall was enabled on the Node itself (Check)
3. Enabled the Firewall on the VM itself:
4. Made sure to enable the Firewall on the net0 interface in the 'Hardware' Tab of the VM to start the firewall
Once this was enabled I tested it to make sure no traffic was able to access the and it worked properly. Which it did not so that was the intended behavior.
5. Then I created this rule: To only allow traffic to port 8080 via tcp from the proxy 'reverse' (x.x.x.102) to the 'test' vm (x.x.x.105)
The issue I seem to be facing is that; once I attempt to test it, all traffic from the same subnet seems to be able to reach 'test' via direct IP (x.x.x.105) as well. VS what was the goal was which is to only allow that traffic from the proxy only via port 8080?
Did I miss something? What did I do wrong? Did I create the rules incorrectly? Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your time.
