Especially having REMOTE users.
I was super grateful to past me for having bought systems with Bypass NICs. My parents, my in-laws, and my wife and I live on 3 separate continents.
Every once in a while, I’ll have a brain fart and do something stupid and kill some part of the network at their homes from the other side of the world (e.g. a failed proxmox upgrade that hosts OPNsense and Pihole).
With bypass NICs, just have them unplug the server and hit reset on their router and boom, back to factory settings and I’ll just fix it next time I visit.
You are a brave soul operating Proxmox, PiHole, or opnsense for a relative from different continents...
DNS is ALWAYS the issue
