Bridged Network - Scale VMs cannot connect to host

[Apprisco]

I have followed the guide to create a bridged network and attach my existing network into it, and I have the web GUI running again.

I have attached my VMs to this bridged network as seen here:

However, now NONE of the VMs have basic internet access nor do they get picked up as a local address. I have lost all network access to both VMs.

Does anyone have any ideas? I have already tried creating new NICs.

What interface is physically connected to your switch/router?

Can you show the bridge configuration?

There is only one nix (the bridge) attached to the VMs?

1. The bond0 is the bonded network connected to my router.
2.

3. Yes, that's the only NIC attached to the VMs.

What's hilarious is that the Windows VM is now working and has SMB access to the NAS.
The Ubuntu-server VM still fails to find any ip, and basically might as well as not exist.
I can access it through the built in TrueNAS display, but ifconfig shows absolutely no connection. I'm very confused.

what does ip a show as your interface name.

And does it match the net plan in /etc/netplan?

So it seems like the NIC is straight up missing.

No, ens3 is the NIC you assigned br1 to, see the max address.
However that interface does not have an IP. Either force a new DHCP lease (don't know on top of my head) or assign a static IP (something like this:)

Code:

network:
 version: 2
 ethernets:
   ens3:
     dhcp4: no
     addresses: [192.168.1.XXX/24]
     routes:
      - to: default
        via: 192.168.1.12
     nameservers:
         addresses: [192.168.1.12]

where XXX is a free IP in your network. For me it works like that.

Damn, you're right. OPN has a ip address there though so what could be going on then?

 

[Apprisco]

Still not working with the updated netplan :(

 

[chuck32]

Did you apply the settings after updating? How does your netplan look now?

sudo netplan try

 

[Apprisco]

I have run the command successfully w/o errors, and this is how it looks like.
At this point just making a new VM and moving files over seems like the wiser solution haha, while it'd be a ton of pain.
Tried both 24 and 32 btw.

 

[chuck32]

What is OPN? Isn't .138 already taken then?

 

[Apprisco]

OPNsense is the router software i'm using.
The mac address is bound to 138.

 

[chuck32]

Did you reboot or restart the network service afterwards?
