Having issue on proxmox with hetzner

[afidegnum]

i am trying to create a virtual container on my existing debian installation. while hosted on hetzner i followed their directives,

when i chose a bridged mode with the following configuration

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
iface lo inet6 loopback

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
  address 136.243.58.29
  netmask 255.255.255.192
  gateway 136.243.58.1
  # route 136.243.58.0/26 via 136.243.58.1
  up route add -net 136.243.58.0 netmask 255.255.255.192 gw 136.243.58.1 dev eth0

iface eth0 inet6 static
  address 2a01:4f8:212:191c::2
  netmask 64
  gateway fe80::1

I have 2 IP addresses one given by the hosting provider as configured here, and another ip address purchased purposely for the virtual machine which i m aware it's MAC address needs to be added from proxmox interface and static ip address from the virutal machine. can you please guide me further?

N.B after installation, i can't still have access to the interface via port 8006

Where is your bridge vmbr0? Please recheck your config with the Hetzner documentation, as they have a very special network setup.

when i ran `ifconfig -a` i can only see eth0 and lo network interfaces

 

[afidegnum]

as suggested in the documentation, i have run

modprobe kvm
modprobe kvm_intel

and

sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_forward=1

but i still can't detect the virtual network interface

A minimal network setup looks like this below, Hetzner's is different from that, hence the documentation.

cat /etc/network/interfaces

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

iface enp6s0 inet manual

auto vmbr0
iface vmbr0 inet static
    address 192.168.1.2
    netmask 255.255.255.0
    gateway 192.168.1.1
    bridge_ports enp6s0
    bridge_stp off
    bridge_fd 0

thanks @Alvin for your reply, this is my current settings

### Hetzner Online GmbH installimage

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
iface lo inet6 loopback

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
  address 136.243.58.29
  netmask 255.255.255.192

  # route 136.243.58.0/26 via 136.243.58.1
  up route add -net 136.243.58.0 netmask 255.255.255.192 gw 136.243.58.1 dev eth0

iface eth0 inet6 static

[afidegnum]

what do you suggest?

 

[afidegnum]

This settings did not work for me,

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
iface lo inet6 loopback
iface eth0 inet manual
auto vmbr0
iface vmbr0 inet static
        address  136.243.58.29
        netmask  255.255.255.192
        gateway  136.243.58.1
        bridge_ports eth0
        bridge_stp off
        bridge_fd 0

iface vmbr0 inet6 static
        address  2a01:4f8:212:191c::2
        netmask  64
        gateway  fe80::1

I suggest, that you should go through this forum, as many other users have similar questions and read Hetzner's wiki.
