General Discussion / Ultimate noob unable to access web gui for OPNsense VM
« on: December 31, 2018, 05:56:35 pm »
Hello folks,
As the title states, I'm a complete noob to the Linux firewall scene. I set up PiHole some time ago and have enjoyed monitoring my DNS traffic, so I figured this was the next logical step in gaining more control over my home network.
I have seemingly successfully installed OPNsense as a virtual machine. The VM is installed via KVM on my machine running Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS and Cockpit. Cockpit shows my VM as running. I am able to access the VM via SSH, but I am unable to access the web gui.
For reference, 192.168.1.2:9090 takes me to my Cockpit gui from any machine on my LAN. So I would assume I would connect to OPNsense via 192.168.1.2:<someport>? I've tried searching around for this, but to no avail. I'm probably just doing something stupid.
Any help regarding accessing an OPNsense VM's web gui from LAN would be much appreciated. Perhaps I need to forward the OPNsense ports in my Ubunutu server? Thanks in advance and my apologies if I'm asking stupid questions.
