Hello, so I have been using this config for almost 2 years and as far as I am aware there isnt a problem but someone has told me it is wrong...
I have revisited the netgate instruction page and it is wrong.
PVE network:
enp1s0f0 - vmbr0 - <pve ip address>
enp1s0f1 - vmbr1
enp1s0f2 - vmbr2
Expected Setup:
enp1s0f1 - vmbr1 - WAN
enp1s0f2 - vmbr2 - LAN
Actual Setup:
enp1s0f0 - vmbr0 - LAN
enp1s0f1 - vmbr1 - WAN1
enp1s0f2 - vmbr2 - WAN2
Note:
-WAN2 is no longer in use but intend to have it back at some point.
-My Main router has 4+1 NICs
-My backup router only has 3 NICs
-It would be handy if I could stick with three NICs as its easy to clone backups(updated config/OS updates/patches etc) over to the backup machine from time to time.
Do I actually need to change anything?
In pfSense GUI I do not see my ISP external IP - I think it is showing the ONT IP.
in the pfSense Terminal it does actually show the External IP
If this needs reworking, what do I need to do and in what order?
I feel like ive been thinking about this for so long my brain has stopped working
Any help/advice is appreciated.
Thank you.
