Hi, I’m new to this topic and I’m planning on building my own home lab. I want to build one server with proxmox and pfsense in a VM. Do I need a multiport network card or is the single port on the motherboard sufficient for creating VLANs?

    Good point, thank you! The device is intended to be a Nas and then I want to try additional things. I also have some smarthome devices which I wanted to put in a separate vlan. Putting pfsense also on that device actually doesn’t seem to be the best idea.

      No problem those little pc’s cant remember the term, you can get an additional nic in them and make them dual nic devices.
