19.7 Legacy Series / Re: OPNSense on KVM (Virtio) ?
« on: July 27, 2019, 11:45:55 pm »
I have OPNSense 19.7 firewalls running in a Proxmox KVM using Ceph disks.
* I tried the image the "nano" image and it sort of worked, but I had some disk errors so I just decided to install it from ISO.
* SCSI Controller: VirtIO SCSI Single
* Hard disk. Bus Device: SCSI (NOT VirtIO-Block, though that may work too). I also enable Writeback Cache, Discard, and IO Thread.
* Network. On the bare metal Proxmox host, I created two bridge interfaces vmbr0 and vmbr1, which go to WAN and LAN hardware. In OPNSense, these become the vtnet0 and vtnet1 interfaces. Network card Model: VirtIO (paravirtualized).
* Processor: kvm64
* OS Type: Other (not sure this is needed; Linux, Windows, and Solaris are the other options)
* Qemu Agent: Disabled (would be nice to enable, but I don't think there is a qemu-guest-agent for OPNSense).
* pfsync/HA works.
