New to Proxmox, some guidance needed for network config

Did you make sure to reboot the node after making all your network changes?

Absolutely!

As a matter of fact, I just removed the gateway in the node management bridge (vmbr0), checked "autostart" for all eth devices as I want, and rebooted the node. Booted right back up with all ethX devices activated at boot, and the VM's start just fine, no more strange errors like "bridge 'vmbr2' does not exist"

I dont know if I should slap myself in the face or not but some packages in pfsense were causing troubles... thats why the node couldnt access the web.

As to why the changes made to the network config were reversed (auto ethX lines removed and vmbr2 not being created at boot time) , I have no clue.

I uninstalled all packages in pfsense VM, re-added the proper network config settings in proxmox, and rebooted the node.

All is fine finally! I even tested the setup for a few hours, all is working!!

PS: Cable modem has to be unplugged to clear off the MAC address of the old router as well.... I forgot that a few times too... Being at the other end of the house and in a closet, I rarely have a chance to see it!

THanks pirateghost for the help once again!

Hello everybody. Tell me please, I unified 2 network interfaces, how do I properly assign them to a virtual machine?
The virtual machine I have is Windows7, I want to assign it a bond0 but I do not understand how to do it correctly.

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

iface enp2s0f1 inet manual

iface enp2s0f0 inet manual

iface enp2s0f2 inet manual

iface enp2s0f3 inet manual

auto bond0
iface bond0 inet static
        address  192.168.102.116
        netmask  255.255.255.0
        slaves enp2s0f2 enp2s0f3

auto vmbr0
