MY PROXMOX IP IS 192.168.168.3
I wanted to give my VM an PUBLIC IP - I am not sure how would I do that.

VM PUBLIC IP : 209.221.XX.XX

I will really appreciate your help in this

Hi,
one way: create an new bridge, like vmbr1 with eth1(?). Connect your public-net with this NIC, and change the bridge in the VM.

That's all.

Hi,
use only the bridge-name (vmbr1 or vmbr99, ...) and the assigned device (eth1) without ip-address (0.0.0.0), because your pve-host should not be accessible and need not to use on IP.

After changing the network-config you must reboot to activate this config!

Thanks Udo !

After I do the above, I than need to configure the public IP to that VM and I should be all set I assume ... or do I need to set the public IP to that bridge I created and than set that bridge to my VM
