HOWTO: Add a New Environment (QA) to the VLAN Scheme

Extends the VLAN scheme with a new isolated environment — demonstrated with a QA VLAN (VLAN 25). Covers gateway subinterface provisioning on Proxmox, Terraform IPAM subnet map extension, QA VM provisioning through the standard VM module, and iptables firewall rules enforcing QA-to-prod isolation with controlled access to dev and staging. The same steps apply to any new environment under ADR-0101.

What this covers:

  • VLAN subinterface and gateway provisioning on Proxmox for a new environment
  • Terraform IPAM extension with new subnet map entry and allocation blocks
  • Inter-VLAN firewall update enforcing QA-to-prod isolation per ADR-0103
