    [SOLVED] Add NIC to Proxmox PVE 8

    I've been running PVE 8 with only one NIC for quite a awhile. I'd like to add a 2.5GB NIC and repurpose the current 1GB NIC later. To do this, do I just replace the old NIC with the new NIC in the bridge (vmbr0) or is there more I have do? The 1GB NIC will remain in the PVE. Thanks for your help
