Greetings,

I started learning about VLANs and decided to try isolating my VM intoi its own VLAN (VLAN10).

My goal is to make this VM unreachable by other machines, while still allowing the VM to have full access to the internet.

I have watched numerous videos and read a few other threads that mentioned this goal to be achievable by utilizing Proxmox's firewall. However I would like to still achieve my original goal in the way that I have described.

I have also purchased a managed NETGEAR switch of model GS308Ev4.

So far, I start encountering connectivity issues in the VM, after I make my vmbr0 VLAN aware and also try to add a second group in the switch by creating a VLAN10 (ID=10) group with port 2(Proxmox server) and port 8(Router) added to it.

Could anyone kindly guide me in the right direction so I can achieve my original goal, or point out any areas I have misunderstood. I love learning but find VLANs to be quite complex to grasp.

Thank you.
