I have just installed proxomox on a system and I use mellanox connectx-3 10 fiber channel adapters. I have it plugged in and seems like it is detected by proxmox but if I do an ifconfig the interfaces show down. If i do an ifup it says no interface. This is a dual port adapter and fiber is plugged into one and I have link lights. Anyone have any idea if this is working correctly? seems like it should show up on 1.
I assume the ens259 is the mellanox driver.
lspci shows a kernal looks to have loaded it and it shows in the gui.
Here is the networking section on the server

I ask because I created a vm on this host and configured the ovs port on vlan 5 and the adpater is installed in a trunk port, but I can not ping the host on that adapter.
thanks.
