HI everyone,

I've got a problem with my dhcp setup I'm trying to figure it out.

My proxmox cluster is right now set in a default configuration using a bridge as described in the documentation. Proxmox Documentation
Every VM is connected to the same vmbr0 of the gui, so every vm can have an ip on the same subnet of proxmox itself.

Fine.
Every VM with a static ip works as expected. No problem so far.

VM set in DHCP mode, nothing. No IP from DHCP.
I can even see the request has been made, but no response.

Any other machine connected directly to the network gets a response from the DHCP.

Here the packet sent from a VM (I redacted the MAC Address for what is worth).

Any suggestion?

Code:
tcpdump -i vmbr0 port 67 or port 68 -e -n -vv

Is the nic an Intel one ending in -LM? Like I226-LM? Or maybe some other with Intel vPro?
If so, this is a problem with Intel vPro and there is nothing you can do about it.
Use another nic.
