Could turning your PC into a NAS router switch cause issues?
I aim to clarify your question and provide a helpful response. Could you please specify what you mean by "here"?
Usually avoid using PCs as switches. You can set up virtualization for PFSense next to Truenas or Unraid, then use a NAS along with a router/firewall. However, using a switch as the main switch is feasible. This works in my lab where many VMs run, and PFSense and Truenas are among them. Yes, it’s achievable, but it requires significant learning and managing things directly before reaching that stage… it can easily block your internet or local network through virtual firewalls.
The question is about identifying the problem or topic you'd like help with.
