I tried this setup but after reboot my headless server I can't ssh into

I must to rescue it to get it back.
Should I run some route commands to get it working?
Anyway I plan my home network in Dia and export it to an image:

I'm persistently looking for a solution for this case.
Any advices will be appreciated!
