Would also create a docker container with the latest unifi controller on the Ubuntu (non VM).

As soon as the booting process starts, you will be prompted to choose the Ubuntu Server 20.04 ISO image from your machine and click on the folder icon to attach the file. My understanding is that I’d need to passthrough the NIC to Virtualbox to see the 4x NIC. Right-click on the Ubuntu server 20.04 and click on start. The plan is to connect my fiber modem to one of the 4x ports on my NIC and then connect another port on the 4x NIC to my 24 port switch that feeds the majority hardwired connections in the home as well as the WAPs. Proposed VM / Docker Config: I would like to create a VM in Virtualbox with 2 cores, 8GB of RAM and - dynamic storage pool and install pfsense. Network: 1x UDM Pro 3x U6-Lite 1x USW 24-port PoE switch Hardware: AMD 5950X (16 cores) 64GB of RAM 1x 2.5gbps on mobo Ethernet port 4x 1gbps ethernet NIC in a PCIe slot. I am looking to see whether it’s possible to ditch my UDM Pro by running a Unifi Controller in a Docker container and run pfsense in a VM in front of the unifi controller on same server? Tbt motivation is for a more robust firewall for some policy routing, failover WAN, ad blocking, and a reverse proxy, which pfsense offers vs the UDM Pro.
