Connect to VLANs on subnets through single interface

Hi, I’m setting up a server for the first time, been around the block but also been a while.

I’m having a, likely simple, problem. I’ve setup 5 different vlans with their individual subnets. This is using Proxmox’s SDN by the way. Every thing is working great and I can segregate services at my liking. However, now I’m seeing a possible problem. How do I access two of these services/networks at once from my laptop? I could pretty easily do this if it was just vlans, since it would be a matter of tagging. But how do you handle connecting to several subnets providing different cervices at once. Like Admin vlan, Files vlan, Local vlan, as an example…

The best way would be to use a router/firewall to route traffic between the different networks and control the access.

Maybe not so simple a question. :sweat_smile:

Any pointers on what that means? I’ve setup pretty basic firewall rules but nothing to do with routing between subnets.

You could look in to running pfsense or opnsense as a VM.

… or if it’s a VM that needs access to more of these, you could give it more than 1 virtual interface.

You can use VPN and remote connection client to connec the each of the VLAN individually.
