Choose a fixed location for OVS and Ubuntu.
You're dealing with a complex setup involving multiple networking tools and configurations. It seems you're trying to manage static IP assignments for VMs, containers, and your main system using a 10G fiber connection. The DHCP isn't working as expected, so you've switched to a manual approach. You've updated several packages and changed your network interface files to enable static IPs. However, you're still facing issues with DNS resolution—specifically, you can ping external sites but not internal ones like google.com. This suggests the static IP might be conflicting with routing rules or firewall settings. Review your routing table and firewall configurations to ensure proper communication paths. Also, double-check that your network interfaces are correctly set up for OVS (Open Virtual Server) mode if needed. If problems persist, consider consulting a more detailed guide or seeking help from a community forum.
Determine whether the Pfsense unit needs a static IP, or if it's the NAS, VMS, or FreeNAS. You can adjust the static IP in the settings if you're using FreeNAS. For Ubuntu, the configuration is in /etc/network/interfaces.
On Ubuntu server you resolved the DNS settings by editing resolved.conf instead of the interfaces file.
