Good day all,
I'm in the process of converting from ESXI to Proxmox. I have pfSense virtualized and working on Proxmox with 2 bonded networks, one for WAN and one for LAN where the WAN is directly connected from the Proxmox host to the Modem.
The next step is to configure Proxmox HA for the pfSense VM, but I'm having trouble when moving the WAN connection to 3 ports on the switch in its own vlan. The intent is to have the modem directly and one port on each host connect to the switch on a segregated vlan.
Switch configuration (Dell 7048P):
Port 38-40 = vlan 5 (WAN vlan)
vlan configuration on each port:
Port VLAN Mode: Access
PVID: 5
Frame Type: AdmitUntaggedOnly
Ingress Filtering: Enable
Port Priority: 0
Port configuration:
Maximum Frame Size 1518
Auto Negotiate: Enable
Admin Advertisement: All Supported
LAG: Not a LAG Member
Current Flow Control: Inactive
When I move the connection to go through the switch, I can't establish connectivity. Watching the switches blinking lights, I see the modem going nuts as expected. The connection to the Proxmox host looks like it is attempting to establish a connection, but then times out. It blinks a couple times (auto negotiation), then goes dark for a several seconds. For troubleshooting, I plugged the WAN port on the Host into the LAN side of the switch. It did the same couple of blinks, then starts going nuts after getting an IP from the LAN DHCP server.
I get the impression that the switch is blocking something, but I'm not sure what to look for at this point. Is it possible my ISP is doing something weird? Thoughts?
