Feedback:

Hello.

There is a missing one important section of the documentation/system.
To install and configure QEMU guest-agent inside the pFSense VM.

On the Proxmox VE side, there is just one click on VM (pfSense):
Options --> QEMU Agent [x] (checkbox) to enable it.

Importance of Qemu guest agent is explained here:
https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Qemu-guest-agent.

Also it will be great to add the qemu-guest-agent package to:
System --> Package Manager --> Available Packages:

And after installation to enable it at the pfSense (VM) startup as a service.

P.S. Qemu guest agent is important on all the other Linux based (KVM+QEMU) hypervisors like OpenStack, Red Hat / Oracle Virtualization (Proxmox VE) etc.

BR,
Hrvoje.
