Well, at the time, there was no AI. So a lot of this was just me and stack overflow. I imagine it’s a lot easier now.

I had 3 Ethernets. 2x 10Gbe. 1x 1Gbe.

My Synology would directly connect to the proxmox directly using the 10Gbe since it has immich on it and the source of truth is on the Synology.

The other 10Gbe went into the 10Gbe switch which had ports for 2.5Gbe and my wifi 7 connects to this.

The main WAN would come in on the 1Gbe.

Any random settings that I updated, I would lose everything and have to plug in a keyboard and redo the .conf.

What I ended up doing was just have one the 10Gbe as the router WAN and then the 1Gbe became the console/different VLAN and so I don’t count on the router to connect to my pfsense.

I still at the very end just gutted pfsense out and gave it a proper box. Never a problem since.
