# Proxmox Network Recommendations
|
||||
|
||||
## Current Setup
|
||||
|
||||
- Home network: `10.5.1.0/24`
|
||||
- Proxmox host: `10.5.1.10` (static)
|
||||
- Single NIC, `vmbr0` bridged to LAN
|
||||
- VMs on the same `/24` via DHCP
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Home Router (10.5.1.1)
|
||||
|
|
||||
[LAN: 10.5.1.0/24]
|
||||
|
|
||||
Proxmox (10.5.1.10) — vmbr0 bridged to LAN
|
||||
|
|
||||
VMs (DHCP from home router, flat network)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Problem: VMs, Proxmox management UI (port 8006), and all LAN devices share the same flat network — no isolation.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Best Practice Tiers
|
||||
|
||||
### Tier 1 — Minimal (single NIC, no managed switch)
|
||||
|
||||
Add a second internal bridge for isolated VMs. Keep `vmbr0` for LAN-facing VMs.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
vmbr0 → bridged to NIC → 10.5.1.0/24 (LAN, trusted VMs)
|
||||
vmbr1 → internal only → 10.5.2.0/24 (isolated VMs + NAT)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Add to `/etc/network/interfaces`:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
auto vmbr1
|
||||
iface vmbr1 inet static
|
||||
address 10.5.2.1/24
|
||||
bridge-ports none
|
||||
bridge-stp off
|
||||
post-up echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
|
||||
post-up iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s 10.5.2.0/24 -o vmbr0 -j MASQUERADE
|
||||
post-down iptables -t nat -D POSTROUTING -s 10.5.2.0/24 -o vmbr0 -j MASQUERADE
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Tradeoff:** No special hardware needed. Proxmox web UI still reachable from entire LAN.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### Tier 2 — VLAN Segmentation (single NIC + managed switch)
|
||||
|
||||
Make `vmbr0` VLAN-aware. All VLANs over one physical NIC, router handles inter-VLAN routing.
|
||||
|
||||
| VLAN | Purpose | Subnet |
|
||||
|------|---------------------|-----------------|
|
||||
| 10 | Proxmox management | 10.5.10.0/24 |
|
||||
| 20 | Trusted VMs / LAN | 10.5.20.0/24 |
|
||||
| 30 | IoT / untrusted | 10.5.30.0/24 |
|
||||
| 40 | DMZ (internet-facing) | 10.5.40.0/24 |
|
||||
|
||||
In Proxmox UI: set `vmbr0` → **VLAN aware**, assign VLAN tag per VM.
|
||||
|
||||
**Requires:** managed switch + VLAN-capable router (OPNsense, pfSense, Unifi, TP-Link Omada, etc.).
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### Tier 3 — Firewall VM inside Proxmox
|
||||
|
||||
Run OPNsense or pfSense as a VM. Proxmox management gets its own isolated VLAN unreachable by guest VMs.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
WAN → pfSense VM → routes between all VLANs → VMs
|
||||
→ Proxmox management VLAN (isolated)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Tradeoff:** Most flexible, most complex. Worth it for internet-exposed services.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Recommended Setup: Two NICs (Physical Separation)
|
||||
|
||||
Physical separation is simpler and more secure than VLAN trunking at home lab scale.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
NIC1 (enp1s0) → vmbr0 → Proxmox management only
|
||||
host IP: 10.5.1.10
|
||||
web UI + SSH — no VMs attached
|
||||
|
||||
NIC2 (enp2s0) → vmbr1 → VM traffic bridge
|
||||
VMs get DHCP from home router
|
||||
no host IP on this bridge
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Security benefit:** even if a VM is compromised, it has no path to the Proxmox management interface.
|
||||
|
||||
### `/etc/network/interfaces`
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
auto lo
|
||||
iface lo inet loopback
|
||||
|
||||
# Management — Proxmox host only
|
||||
auto enp1s0
|
||||
iface enp1s0 inet manual
|
||||
|
||||
auto vmbr0
|
||||
iface vmbr0 inet static
|
||||
address 10.5.1.10/24
|
||||
gateway 10.5.1.1
|
||||
bridge-ports enp1s0
|
||||
bridge-stp off
|
||||
bridge-fd 0
|
||||
|
||||
# VM traffic — no IP on the bridge itself
|
||||
auto enp2s0
|
||||
iface enp2s0 inet manual
|
||||
|
||||
auto vmbr1
|
||||
iface vmbr1 inet manual
|
||||
bridge-ports enp2s0
|
||||
bridge-stp off
|
||||
bridge-fd 0
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
NIC2 must connect to a regular untagged LAN port on your switch/router so VMs continue to receive DHCP from the home router on `10.5.1.0/24`.
|
||||
|
||||
### Terraform — update the network bridge
|
||||
|
||||
In `main.tf`, change `bridge` from `vmbr0` to `vmbr1` for both resource blocks:
|
||||
|
||||
```hcl
|
||||
network {
|
||||
id = 0
|
||||
bridge = "vmbr1"
|
||||
model = "virtio"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
No router changes needed — VMs still get `10.5.1.x` addresses via DHCP as before.

## Summary
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|--------|----------------|-----------|------------|
|
||||
| Tier 1 (NAT bridge) | None | Partial | Low |
|
||||
| Tier 2 (VLANs) | Managed switch | Good | Medium |
|
||||
| Tier 3 (Firewall VM) | None extra | Excellent | High |
|
||||
| **Two NICs** (chosen) | Second NIC | **Good, simple** | **Low** |
