Hi everyone, I made a classic mistake and enabled the Firewall at the Datacenter level in Proxmox without a whitelist rule for my IP. I am now locked out of the Web UI and SSH.

I am using a dedicated server at OVH. I tried to use the IPMI/KVM console to fix it, but I keep getting the error: 'An error has occurred attempting to connect to the IPMI module using your browser
 
Have you tried a different browser? A cloud virtual VM with various browsers? Tried to get a new server/VM on the same network and access BMC via CLI (if thats possible with OVH)?

If all else fails, reach out to OVH support - a client error while trying to access hardware BMC of an OVH server should be something they can help with.
