What is the issue you’re encountering

Hello, could you very please advise me in my situation: I’ve got a Proxmox server running ~20 virtual machines, each of them having their own network configuration (IPs - proxies / vpns). To ease my acces to the proxmox machine over the internet, I would like to setup a Zero-Trust Tunnel and a DNS-only domain. Since it is very important for me to keep my network configuration on my machines exactly as it is, could you please advise if in this configuration - zero trust tunnel + dns-only domain access for the proxmox web-gui - are the network settings of the virtual machines affected? In fewer words, the tunnel and dns is only used to acces the web guy of my domain or its still in use for the dns querries inside the virtual machines traffic? past the login, Cloudflare intereferes in any way with the traffic? I hope I have managed to explain my question. Thank you very much in advance. Regards,Vlad.

Not secure way.

I’ve had a case where I’ve installed Proxmox VE and Backup on two Hetzner Cloud instances.
Each running it’s own cloudflared tunnel and added public hostname e.g. ve.example.com and bak.example.com.
Following the guidelines for Proxmox regarding the SSL certificate, since I’ve had an issue and had to re-generate at least a self-signed SSL certificate and copy-paste it into the desired directory.
Later, just locking the ports for my Hetzner Cloud instances.
If you need some specific ports, you can allow only Cloudflare IPs to access over those ports to your origin host, if you know that VMs are also using domains over Cloudflare? :thinking:
