So I was testing to direct pci pass through my network card, I hit the start VM button, and the web freezes. I immediately realised that the VM is hijacking the web interface route, I restart, but always not fast enough before the VM auto starts. How can I turn either auto VM off, or shuts down the VM so it don't hijack my ssh and web interface port?
Any help will do thx.

Disable IOMMU/VT-d in the motherboard BIOS to prevent the VM from starting. Or add amd_iommu=off or set intel_iommu=off once by pressing the e-key in the boot menu. Or login to the Proxmox host console and edit the VM configuration file manually.

Good idea! I disabled intel virtualization setting in bios and can confirmed that it worked!
