Hey there, I have finally started a home lab.
I had some questions,

1. How do I monitor its power consumption effectively?
2. How can I run Opnsense on this machine properly in an proxmox vm?

Also suggestions from experienced people is welcomed.

This is a Optiplex 3060 sff
Processor= i5 8500
OS= Proxmox VE
Ram= 8 gb
Storage = 256 gb

And the optiplex in between the wall and the sofa.
