I'm not very good in networking, perhaps someone can guide me thru. So this how I started.

Code:
root@UniMatrix001:~# ip -br -c a
lo               UNKNOWN        127.0.0.1/8 ::1/128
eno1np0          UP             
eno2np1          UP             
enp129s0f0       DOWN           
enp129s0f1       DOWN           
enx42d0f00f737b  DOWN           
vmbr0            UP             38.189.78.27/24 fe80::aaa1:59ff:fec2:7858/64
vmbr1            UP             38.189.78.26/24 fe80::aaa1:59ff:fec2:7859/64
tap100i0         UNKNOWN

I can SSH and login to Proxmox, but I can't update, I open shell and typed ping google.com and its unreachable.
Next step.

Code:
root@UniMatrix001:~# ip -c link show
1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
    link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00

    link/ether a8:a1:59:c2:78:58 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

    link/ether 02:2e:4f:24:44:0d brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

As you see, I don't see any IP on any device, so my next step to type in Option A: ```ip addr add 38.189.78.27/24 dev eno1np0``` or Option:B ```ip addr add 38.189.78.27/24 dev vmbr0```

So option A or B? or I'm wrong?
 
Could you post the Output of
ip r
Code:
root@UniMatrix001:~# ip r
default via 38.189.78.1 dev vmbr0 proto kernel onlink
38.189.78.0/24 dev vmbr0 proto kernel scope link src 38.189.78.27
38.189.78.0/24 dev vmbr1 proto kernel scope link src 38.189.78.26
 
Can you ping an IP-address (for example 8.8.8.8)?
Which nameserver you have configured?
cat /etc/resolv.conf

Edit: Why you use two adresse from the same Netzwork for both bridges?

Code:

search unimatrix001.net
nameserver 192.168.1.1
This wrong, it should be 38.189.78.1
I need two public IP because I'm using and app that needs it.

should I nano this? nano ```/etc/resolv.conf``` and change 192.168.1.1 to 38.189.78.1 then run systemctl restart networking? because I'm not using a router.

Yes, edit the /etc/resolv.conf. You don't need to restart anything.

The address you asigned to the bridge ist the Management adress of the PVE. VMs/CTs have their own configuration.

You could assign the 38.189.78.26 to the vmbr0. The 38.189.78.27 to VM/CT

If you don't need the PVE reachable from public, you can assign 0.0.0.0 to the vmbr1 an connect this bridge to the VMs/CTs. In the VM/CT configure the public IP and Gateway.
The vmbr0 can be used only in the private network formanagement (192.168.1.123).

Are you now able to resolv names an ping to eg. 8.8.8.8
root@UniMatrix001:~# ping google.com
ping: google.com: Temporary failure in name resolution

So option A or B? or I'm wrong?
My concern that none of these devices are not showing any IP.
