I’m a little confused. I think that’s exactly how I have it set up currently. The problem is that proxmox doesn’t get an internet connection. I’m unable to ping out or resolve dns from proxmox. The rest of the network is getting internet though. I reserved a static ip in OPNsense for proxmox. Could that be causing a problem?

Yeah, that’s what i have. I setup the two ports on the card for wan/lan and passed them to the VM. I could try disabling the firewall in proxmox.

Grep "nameserver” /etc/resolve.conf , shows 127.0.0.53

I have a managed switch. I’m a little confused how everything would be hooked up if I’m using a vm for pfsense and another vm for some Linux distro. I want the router and that distro to be isolated from my other vlans. Could I use the onboard nic hooked up to the switch to put the distro on its own vlan?

Thanks for the advice! I ended up getting a managed switch on amazon and an older dell computer to set up OPNsense. Can’t wait to get started!
