Hi~ I am so happy I now can get VM working with private IPv4 by follow this link: https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/chapter-pvesdn.html#pvesdn_overview
And also follow steps of this example: https://www.virtualizationhowto.com/2024/03/proxmox-sdn-configuration-step-by-step/

Now my question is: Why IPv6 not working like Ipv4 ? Did I missed anything ?
I think maybe I just a few clicks away from success!
Pls help!
I also goto this site to get a private IPv6 example: https://simpledns.plus/private-ipv6
But my VM still get wrong ipv6 and I still not be able to ping6 to google, while IPv4 is OK!

When I click SDN --> IPAM in web-based, I see it did assigned! But in my VM, it is not, Don't understand why ?
Check the screenshot, TKS.

I just found if I use ubuntu 24 template to create a vm , it can shows up the private ipv6 as I set in SDN and can ping my server's IPv6 2001:41d0:6X2:bX4::1:
