Proxmox/OPNsense with SR-IOV

[spetrillo]

Good morning all,

I am moving away from VMware and working with a 2 node Proxmox cluster. I have moved all my original VMs over to Proxmox, but now beginning to think what it would take to virtualize OPNsense. My cluster nodes have an Intel I350 4 port PCI card in them, that supports SR-IOV. I have gotten Proxmox configured so I have 4 VF interfaces for each physical interface on the I350.

I was wondering if anyone has gotten a config similar to this working with Proxmox.

Thanks,
Steve

How did you get passthrough to work? Do you add the physical interfaces or the vf interfaces to the vm?

Just add network interfaces as PCI devices. Do keep in mind that these interfaces will NOT be evailable to other VMs.
