Hey there,

I'm new to Proxmox and bridging in Linux.

The thing I try:

(IP Config over here)
WWW <----> Public IP <-----> NIC <-----> vmbr0 <-------> Proxyserver <--------> vmbr1 <-----> VM's and Proxmox

In a nutshell.
I want all traffic directly to go to my proxyserver. Why? Because the proxy should do some reverse proxy.
So the IP's should be configured in my ProxyServer. Right?

I'm not sure if this works but prefferably the proxmox server itself should not listen onto it's NIC and the br0 instead to the vmbr1.
This way I could make sure only the traffic I allow and want to gains access to my Host and my other VM's.
Like the Host doesn't know about a Package until it passes the ProxyServer.
I'm aware that usually this would be done with a router or a second Server but I have only this server available.

I've tried several things, thus so far nothing worked out for me.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but even though all traffic would firstly go to my ProxyServer I would still be able to access my Host via Remote Console.

If you need more information about my crazy Idea let me know.


Thanks ahead.

Lukas

External IPs need to be bound there, the proxy passes them to the internal services.

Only if you keep the node IP on the bridge or use a different interface for it.
