Hello there !
I have a strange problem since I install ProxmoxVE 6 on a dedicated server at OVHcloud.
I use a predifined template from OVH for the installation, the install and boot going well.

Once I can connect to proxmox, I got to configure my network like below

/etc/network/interfaces
Code: 
auto vmbr0
    iface vmbr0 inet static
        address  xx.xx.xx.xx/24
        gateway  xx.xx.xx.xx
        bridge-ports eno1
        bridge-stp off
        bridge-fd 0
    iface vmbr0 inet6 static
        address  xx:xx:xx::xx/68
        gateway  xx:xx:xx::xx
        #Wan

auto vmbr1
        iface vmbr1 inet static
        address  192.168.1.5/24
        bridge-ports none
        bridge-stp off
        bridge-fd 0
        #LAN

After that I apply a "ifup vmbr0", no problem
Then "ifup vmbr1" ... no responce, the terminal stay stuck and I need to Ctrl-C

I try a reboot with this conf, but then, the server get stuck on "A start job is running for network initialisation (1m34 / no limit)
So I need to boot in rescue mode, edit my interface with only vmbr0, reboot, and then it's working well.

After mutliple test, restart, rescue (I need that second vmbr !), I assigned a physical interface eno2 to vmbr1.
And it's working perfectly ! I can ifup and reboot !
Lucky, I don't need this second interface eno2 for this project, so it's ok for now.

But i want to be able to create other vmbr ! I will maybe need it in future !
I'm starting with proxmox, so i probably fail/forget something ?

Here /etc/network/interfaces which work well :
Code: 
auto vmbr0
    iface vmbr0 inet static
        address  xx.xx.xx.xx/24
        gateway  xx.xx.xx.xx
        bridge-ports eno1
        bridge-stp off
        bridge-fd 0
    iface vmbr0 inet6 static
        address  xx:xx:xx::xx/68
        gateway  xx:xx:xx::xx
        #Wan

auto vmbr1
        iface vmbr1 inet static
        address  192.168.1.5/24
        bridge-ports eno2
        bridge-stp off
        bridge-fd 0
        #LAN

Thanks for your help !

Below the message when I reboot

Hello !
Thanks for repply, because indeed, I still didn't solve that.

I saw this post, and I renamed "wait_for_link_up" into "wait_for_link_up.bak" (I kept it just incase). But it didn't solve my problem...
But I don't remember if I restarted after renaming this file (I maybe just ifup), I will make a try !

Thanks
