I created an virtual environment using proxmox for virtualisation with one VM for testing purposes and a pfsense vm. The pfsense has two network adapters. One for the WAN Interface and one for the LAN interface. I connected the VM and pfsense with an bridge vmbr1. That is working fine.
On the WAN interface I have another bridge vmbr1 which is connected to eth0. The bridges are configured as follows:
/etc/network/interfaces
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
iface lo inet6 loopback
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet manual
auto vmbr0
iface vmbr0 inet static
address public_ip
netmask 255.255.255.224
gateway inet_gateway
bridge_ports eth0
bridge_stp off
bridge_fd 0
# route public_ip/27 via inet_gateway
up route add -net inet_getway netmask 255.255.255.224 gw inet_gateway dev eth0
auto vmbr1
iface vmbr1 inet static
address 192.168.18.1
netmask 255.255.255.0
bridge_ports none
bridge_stp off
bridge_fd 0
What I want is an internet connection for the VMs with the pfsense firewall between internet and VMs. But I wasn't able to connect the pfsense with the internet with the public IP.
Do you have some suggestion to solve this problem?
Thanks in advance!
