System has 2 LAN cards (my original forum questions were here)
I have 2 remaining questions:
1. Will this "interfaces" work for providing access from each LAN to this Proxmox server?
Code:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

auto vmbr0
iface vmbr0 inet static
    address 192.168.143.251
    netmask 255.255.255.0
    gateway 192.168.143.129
    bridge_ports eth1
    bridge_stp off
    bridge_fd 0

auto vmbr1
iface vmbr1 inet static
    address 192.168.144.251
    netmask 255.255.255.0
    gateway 192.168.144.254
    bridge_ports eth0
    bridge_stp off
    bridge_fd 0
2. Does Proxmox-Linux provide any documentation on this "interfaces" file?

Thanks in advance for answering each of these...
 
Hi,
you should only use one gateway-enty (for the defaultgateway). If you reach other networks over the net without gateway-entry you must assign a single route.

And yes, you can reach the proxmox-node from both networks. If you plan a cluster, the member must be in the same network (vmbr0).
