Can we do something like this? I was able to get IP from my ISP to my virtual switch. But I am running into routing issues at my virtual switch.
[Modem] → hostpci0 (0000:06:00) → Virtual Switch VM
↓
[Virtual Switch bridges to two virtio NICs]
↓ ↓
vtnet5 (opnsense1) vtnet5 (opnsense2)
↓ ↓
[WAN] [WAN]
I was able to get opnsense1 as primary and opensense2 as backup. Failover etc all are working. My trouble is getting the routing done at Virtial Switch. I used Alpine Linux for my virtual switch.
All this on a Micro Firewall with 6 port - 2.5GB nics on motherboard / J6413 processor. I see CPU spiking up, but if this fix works, I won't mind throwing more cores to this.
