This document provides detailed information on the network setup for Proxmox, including VLANs, subnets, and firewall rules implemented. The configuration is defined in the /etc/network/interfaces
file.
The loopback interface is configured as follows:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
The Ethernet interfaces are configured as follows:
iface enp85s0 inet manual
iface wlo1 inet manual
The 2.5G Ethernet port is configured as follows:
auto enp86s0
iface enp86s0 inet manual
The bridge interface vmbr0
is configured to manage the network traffic and is VLAN-aware:
auto vmbr0
iface vmbr0 inet static
address 192.168.0.2/24
gateway 192.168.0.1
bridge-ports enp86s0
bridge-stp off
bridge-fd 0
bridge-vlan-aware yes
bridge-vids 2-4094
The bridge interface vmbr0
is configured to be VLAN-aware, allowing VLAN IDs from 2 to 4094. This setup enables the segmentation of network traffic for different purposes.
The static IP address 192.168.0.2/24
is assigned to the bridge interface vmbr0
, with a gateway set to 192.168.0.1
. This configuration places the Proxmox server in the 192.168.0.0/24
subnet.
Firewall rules can be managed within the Proxmox web interface or by editing the relevant configuration files in the /etc/pve/firewall/
directory. These rules help secure the network by controlling the traffic flow to and from the Proxmox server.
ip a
command./etc/pve/firewall/
directory.For more detailed troubleshooting steps, refer to the Proxmox VE documentation.
