Hey all,
Ok before I jump down this rabbit hole here is the configuration
Freenas MINI XL Running 11.2-U2 (stable)
3 NICS
- igb0 - Primary Interface - Management \ file share etc, on network 192.168.51.x /24
- igb1 - Secondary Interface - Jails \ DMZ \ Other (may have VLAN in the future etc). on network 192.168.52.x /24
- IPMI - on same network as igb0 - static addressed, configured in IPMI interface to only use that NIC for IPMI, does not show as an available NIC in Freenas OS
One Plugin \ one Jail
- Plex - installed via wizard - Jail set to use NIC igb1 with static IP of 192.168.52.6 /24
Now this sucker ran fine on the igb1 network so long as I didn't enable VNET, with VNET on plex was (it appeared) going out the wrong interface \ was not responsive etc. This was pretty ok with me not running VNET at the moment because I am doing a POC for some media stuff and am controlling the network at the gateway either way.
Now with the last round of update I get an error about VNET being required. Ok fine so I go to try to make this work and no matter what I do aside from rolling it to DHCP and letting it use igb0 the dang jail and plugin never come back on line (I can start them just fine but cant get them to respond via network).
I assume this is because I need to configure VNET to use the DMZ NIC (igb1) but I cant seem to find anywhere with 11.2 to actually configure this. The settings in the jail (pic a NIC, set an IP) seem to do nothing if you enable VNET.
Admittedly I am new to VNET and new to freenas overall, but not that new to networking. (mostly firewall \ edge \ forensic response stuff in my tool bag)
So any ideas?? am I just missing something silly here or am I in for a deep dive?
