18.1 Legacy Series / Multiple NICs and routing and such
« on: March 08, 2018, 11:00:58 pm »
I have a couple of VM hosts with multiple NICs - 1Gbe (LAN) and 10Gbe (NFS/CIFS storage) - and the VM guests have virtual NICs coinciding with each network. On the switch, these connections are isolated in their own VLANs, with OPNsense having interfaces coinciding with each VLAN.
How do I go about forcing the hosts (both hypervisor and guest) to use their 1Gbe LAN connections instead of their 10Gbe connections for getting out into the world? Firewall rule? Remove any gateways? I'd like their 10Gbe data network to be almost isolated. I'd like to get to it from my LAN connected workstation for reasons, but they should really only see each other.
I'm not super familiar with all the full ins and outs of IP networks as far as routing and subnets go.
Thanks for any help you can provide.
