Deleted enp6s0 nic.

[danuu17]

As the title says, like an idiot, I deleted the nic ens6s0 while in the web gui.
Tried manually creating another 'enp6s0' file in the interfaces.d dir but to no avail.
Still pretty new to proxmox so idk if someone out there can explain like i'm 5 since that's apparently what level my brain is at this point in time.

Thank you in advance.

Please share the output of cat /etc/network/interfaces and ip a and maybe we can fill in the missing details.

Looks like you also removed the virtual bridge. Can you find your gateway address (I used 192.168.1.1) and local subnet (I used /24) yourself and choose the IP address for Proxmox (I used 192.168.1.100)? Then edit (nano /etc/network/inferfaces) to look like:
auto lo iface lo inet loopback iface ens6s0 inet manual auto vmbr0 iface vmbr0 inet static address 192.168.1.100/24 gateway 192.168.1.1 bridge-ports ens6s0 bridge-stp off bridge-fd 0
And reboot after making the change. The manual has some examples for (other) network configurations as well.

Looks like it's up and running now.
Web gui comes up too.
Much appreciated m8!
