My system has PVE 9.0.10 with 2 NICs. One Realtek RTL8111 and the other Intel I225-V. The Realtek is on a dedicated VLAN used for management only and the I255 for everything else. Both NICs work as expected after reboots.
My problem is when the managed switched they are connected to is disconnected or rebooted. If that happens the Realtek reconnects but the I255 does not. The I255 has status DOWN (output from ip a command). Commands ifup, “systemctl restart networking” and “ip link set” fail to bring it up. Only a system reboot resolves the problem. My interfaces file is attached. The I255 is enp4s0 on bridge vmbr1.
Any help on what is going on would be greatly appreciated.
