I am a beginner I bought a used X3650 M4. I installed proxmox and everything was going good. but when I tried to connect through a browser I couldn't connect to it. I set my IP as 192.168.1.173 and gateway and dns as 192.168..1.1 the IP pool of my router is between 192.168.1.100 - 192.168.1.199 and gateway is 192.168.1.1. IP of my IMM was 192.168.1.101 from my laptop in cmd I ping 192.168.1.101 ,it was working but when I ping 192.168.1.173 it said the device is unreachable. and I cant access through web interface also. what should I do. I am just 18 by now. please tell me clearly. I new to servers.

What do you mean by "IP pool"? The DHCP IP range your router DHCP server is assigning to DHCP clients? If yes then you should use a free/unused IP that is outside of this DHCP IP range for your PVEs static IP.

And you didn't forget the "s" of the "https" and not the ":8006" when typing in the URL?
 
I didn’t miss anything I typed correctly. Yahh the IP range. Okk can you suggest me an IP ? What can I keep or an example

You have to look at all devices of your LAN that use a static IP and don't choose one that is already in use by another device. Then select something between 192.168.1.2 - 192.168.1.99 or 192.168.1.200 - 192.168.1.254 that isn't already in use. Only you could know whats in use and what not.
 
I tried to ping my laptops IP address from proxmox it also showed destination host unreachable
 
Check if the pveproxy service is running: systemctl status pveproxy.service pvedaemon.service

Check if you can access the webUI from localhost: curl https://localhost:8006 -k | grep title

Check if the server is listening on port 8006: ss -tulpn

Check if the NIC uses a RTL8111/8411/8168 chipset: lspci | egrep -i --color 'network|ethernet'

If your host got multiple NIC check if your cable is plugged into the correct port. An ip addr shouldn't show "NO-CARRIER" for that NIC.

Try another ethernet cable in case that cable is broken.

Reboot your router and PVE server.

Check your routers/clients firewall rules.

If it is still nor working I'm out of ideas.

When I checked pveproxy service is running or not I saw it is running and I saw a line in red color which mentioned “got inotify poll request in wrong process - disabling inotify”

Tell me where I should check this “curl https://localhost:8006 -k | grep title” when I put this in server it showed me <title> pve proxmox virtual environment </title>
