Requests from Nat network to itself not working

Hi,
I have a proxmox setup with one public IP, that's why I have a NAT network with port forwarding. Everything works fine from outside the NAT network, except when I try to reach a server inside the NAT network from any other server inside the NAT network.
I already configured the loopback interface like below, since that I can reach the VMs (via their public URL) from the proxmox host, but still not from any VM inside the NAT network.
Thank you for your help!
Code:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

iface ens3 inet manual

auto vmbr0
iface vmbr0 inet static
        address xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/xx
        gateway xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
        bridge-ports ens3
        bridge-stp off
        bridge-fd 0


auto vmbr1
iface vmbr1 inet static
        address  10.10.10.1
        netmask  255.255.255.0
        network 10.10.10.0
        broadcast 10.10.10.255
        bridge_ports none
        bridge_stp off
        bridge_fd 0

Hi!

Have you been able to solve your problem? There is a typo "poat" in your line
Code:
poat-up   sysctl -w net.ipv4.conf.all.route_localnet=1
