10gb 2 port connections incorrectly detected sometimes

[racerx]

Hello

I'm testing Proxmox-ve_7.1-2 and I noticed a small irratic issue with the installer. My router has static ip setup

When you get to the point were it detects you card the address is (only one port is connected)

Theoretically so it's a static ip

address
192.168.1.75
gateway
192.168.1.1

the installers shows
address
192.168.100
gateway
192.168.100

when you correct this back to
address
192.168.1.75
gateway
192.168.1.1

It breaks your connection - no web, no ping to gateway only can ping 192.168.1.75 itself.


run ip addr
it shows the card is down

To fix you have to

nano /etc/network/interfaces the bridge-ports is incorrect

iface vmbr0 inet static
address 192.168.1.75/24
gateway 192.168.1.1
bridge-ports enp2s0f4
bridge-stp off
bridge-fd 0


and here is what it should be to fix the issue



iface vmbr0 inet static
address 192.168.1.75/24
gateway 192.168.1.1
bridge-ports enp2s0f4d1
bridge-stp off
bridge-fd 0




When this issue happens the installer incorrectly picks the port that is not connected. This causes it to interfaces file to be misconfigured
