Pages on Proxmox VE features that shape cluster design after the basics: software-defined networking, ZFS storage replication, the distributed firewall, dynamic load balancing and OCI-based containers.
Designing Proxmox VE software-defined networking: choosing Simple, VLAN, QinQ, VXLAN or EVPN zones, VNets and subnets for tenant isolation, and which pieces such as IPAM and DHCP are still technology previews.
Using scheduled ZFS replication between nodes for redundancy without shared storage: replication intervals, combining it with HA and the data loss window, and when Ceph is the better design.
Building guest and host isolation with the distributed Proxmox VE firewall: datacenter, host and guest rule levels, security groups and IP sets, and whether to adopt the nftables-based proxmox-firewall preview.
Using the Proxmox VE 9.2 dynamic load balancer to rebalance HA-managed guests from live utilization data, tuning its parameters, and the disarm and arm HA commands for safer maintenance windows.
Creating LXC system containers from OCI images in Proxmox VE 9.1 and later: what works today, where application containers are still emerging, and when Kubernetes on Proxmox VMs remains the right choice.
