I have a new dedicated server from online.net which sets up network in bridged mode by default.
Here, 62.210.137.37 is my primary IP.
I have purchased two additional failover IPs and would like to add these via Proxmox to the new containers. How can I change my network configuration to add the failover IP 212.83.161.20 to Proxmox, so that I can add it to a new container?
Going by the Wiki over here: http://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Network_Model , I had setup the following:
However, on restarting, I lost ping for the primary IP too. I really am not a networking expert, and just starting to learn about servers, and this is my first dedi. Any help would be great.
Code:
cat /etc/network/interfaces
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
# The primary network interface
auto vmbr0
iface vmbr0 inet static
address 62.210.137.37
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 62.210.137.0
broadcast 62.210.137.255
gateway 62.210.137.1
bridge_ports eth0
bridge_stp off
bridge_fd 0
