I run OPNsense in a VM in Proxmox and both Proxmox and the OPNsense have an IP address on my home network and are in the lab network (created by OPNsense, making it the default gateway). When accessing the Proxmox web GUI from its home network IP address on my laptop, which is on the lab network, the webpage loads fine.
However, when I try accessing the web GUI from the server's lab address, it hangs loading in the web browser. I was able to find that it was specifically the pvemanagerlib.js and ext-all.js files.
The file serving will slow to a crawl, so much so that the transmission will typically timeout, but sometimes it goes "quick" enough to see that it's still serving a file, just incredibly slowly.
This only happens on the lab IP address of the Proxmox server. I found through the use of curl that it typically stalls around 48KB of data, but I'm not sure if that's exact, and going off of that I found this article, but my addresses are configured correctly.
It may be an issue with the OPNsense firewall, though I doubt it because even if I setup allow all everywhere, it still does this. I've been researching quite a lot and must not be using the right keywords because I doubt that something like this has never happened before anywhere ever, but hey, maybe it hasn't!
Any help is appreciated and I'm able to supply as much info as needed, as I probably explained things pretty poorly.
