The Farm is on its own network (192.168.0.x), connected back to home (192.168.8.x) via NetBird mesh. Farm Proxmox (fpve) is a NetBird peer and acts as the subnet router for 192.168.0.0/24.
⚠️ Status (late May 2026):
fpvehas been disconnected from NetBird since 2026-05-24 and the farm LAN is currently unreachable from home — evenpve(home Proxmox) can’t pingfpve.netbird.cloud. Either the farm network itself orfpveis down; needs physical / farm-LAN access to diagnose. The ha-mcp MCP is wired correctly but blocked on this outage. The Uptime Kuma monitor for ha-mcp at the farm is parked pending fpve coming back.
Router/Switch: TP-Link Omada ER8411 (router) + Omada Controller at 192.168.0.2. ISP: Starlink in Bypass Mode; native IPv6 delegated via DHCPv6-PD (/56) to Omada.

IPv6 is fully enabled end-to-end at the farm.
- Starlink delegates a
/56to Omada (currently2605:59ca:2b5f:d300::/56) - Omada LAN advertises SLAAC+RDNSS for
2605:59ca:2b5f:d300::/64on vmbr0-equivalent - fpve picks up a global v6 address via RA
⚠️ Proxmox sysctls are NOT persistent across reboots. After any fpve reboot, manually run:
sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.vmbr0.accept_ra=2
sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.vmbr0.autoconf=1
sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.vmbr0.accept_ra_defrtr=1
sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.vmbr0.accept_ra_pinfo=1
Or add to /etc/sysctl.d/99-ipv6.conf to make persistent.
