Hi!
I'm quite new to proxmox, and I wonder how I would create a VM with its own dedicated public IP. I've tried to find something on the wiki about it, but I can't seem to find anything.

Best regards
 
If possible you could passthrough physical network device to your VM and set up all network inside VM as required...
 
Hello,

that dedicated public IP needs to come in into your hardware host through a phyical interface. That interface shall be part of a bridge, usually vmbr0. Your VM can have a virtual interface, connected to that bridge. After this preparation you can assign that public IP address to that virtual NIC the usual, manual way.

Please be aware of network masks, DNS and Gateways to make that virtual server actually work.

With these basics in mind the official documentation should tell the details.

Have fun!

I wish what half of that you said made sense. I've never really worked a lot with virtual machines & networks, I've usually just purchased a managed VPS. If you could make a step-by-step guide for me, I would be so happy.

Well..., you need to get your own knowledge on a level that you can grok the content of https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/pve-admin-guide.html .

Specific questions might find an answer here in the forum, but to provide a complete genuine tutorial is out of (my) scope, sorry.
