Hi Team, My proxmox host has a link speed of 10000 Mbps, but for the VMs it shows only 1000 Mbps.
I tried changing the network device models but still it's the same issue. Also tried updating the speed of the device inside the VM using ethtool command

Is there any other option to achieve this?
 
Test the actual speed with the usual tools, e.g. iperf3. You will possibly note that the actual speed is faster than announced - it is a virtual device and there is no speed limit implemented... as far as I know.
