Greetings, Steven.

Hi,

I have been perusing various articles ( including WIKI) with no luck so I
am hoping  Proxmox friendly community will be able to shed some light

I am sure other people ran into this issue as it is the best way to
accomplish a secure implementation

The gist of the issue is how to deploy many VMs with Internet access on a
cluster in a secure manner when you have only x public IPs  ?

The answer  is to use a private lan and internal virtual firewall ( like
Vyatta)
How exactly can this be done in proxmox ( I did it using VMWare)

details

4 servers, 2 NICs each

eth0 physically connected to DMZ ( no IP allocated as we do not want anyone
to access our hosts)

eth1 - bridge (vmbr0) configured , private IP allocated and used for host
and storage management ( 192.168.192.0/24)

Goal

configure a private lan for the VMs on vmbr0 (172.31.255.0/24)
      I am assuming this can be accomplished by using a vlan and adding
something like this in /etc/network/interfaces and adding the vlan to the
physical switch

        auto vlan53
        iface vlan53 inet manual
              vlan_raw_device eth1

configure/add a bridge (vmbr1) on eth0 that will allow external access
all VMs that need external access will have their interface using vmbr1 and
a "public" IP

If your internal ethernet/bond have a good bandwith to support both subnets, you can do it. Two VLANs, one pointing to storage area, the other pointing to private LAN.

Your VM that allocate Vyatta/VyOS must have one vNIC per VLAN: DMZ, storage and private LAN.
