Hi everyone..
I have a Proxmox install running on a Dell Precision tower. I added a four port copper ethernet NIC, IBM 46Y3512 4 Port Base 1GB TX PCI-E Gigabit Adapter Card to an already configured ProxMox server. This shows up as:
Everything I've read suggests this card is supported and you can see it has loaded the kernel modules. But in the GUI, you cannot see the new interfaces. I'm not sure what else I'm supposed to do. I would have imagined that Proxmox would pick up on the card and add them to the available interfaces but it didn't do that, and I can't seem to find any information about what step I am missing. All the other threads I found were cases where the network card wasn't supported, or where it didn't see the card at all, even on lspci, or where someone needed to actually compile drivers.
Can someone help?? Many thanks in advance!!
And it's not in /etc/network/interfaces either. All that is there is the onboard NIC.
I am up to date on Proxmox but just for posterity, here are the versions I'm running.
