Hello,

I have no connection from and to my host with a bridged interface (no ping from and to the host), but I can ping a VM on that same interface.
Oddly I can get a connection for about 1-2 minutes, after I rebooted the machine.

my /etc/network/interfaces:
Code:
# network interface settings; autogenerated
# Please do NOT modify this file directly, unless you know what
# you're doing.
#
# If you want to manage part of the network configuration manually,
# please utilize the 'source' or 'source-directory' directives to do
# so.
# PVE will preserve these directives, but will NOT its network
# configuration from sourced files, so do not attempt to move any of
# the PVE managed interfaces into external files!

source /etc/network/interfaces.d/*

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet manual

auto vmbr0
iface vmbr0 inet static
        address 192.168.3.5
        netmask 255.255.255.0
        gateway 192.168.3.1
        bridge_ports eth0
        bridge_stp off
        bridge_fd 0

What kind of NIC you have?
I mean the type.
 
Have you looked in the logs?
Is there are any hints?
 
I can't see anything suspicious.
Here is my syslog:

I just read this here ... please do not cross-post german/english. This is very hard to follow and discuss.

As I wrote on the german entry:

Have you tried stopping all your VMs and testing then? Maybe some MAC or IP collision?
 
Yes, the problem still exists without a VM running. The problem only exists, when I install Proxmox on a normal Debian Image (tested it twice). Everything works fine with the official Proxmox Image. I will use the Proxmox Image for now, but maybe try it again sometime.
 
What about the ifconfig status? Have you installed network-manager-stuff? This influences and it is written do deinstall it because it influences the way Proxmox VE works.

Please run

dpkg -l | grep network

This is just a standard debian installation with no special packages.
 
One strange this is that your have eth0 and vmbr0 with the same IP. I'd change that but I do not think this is the mail problem. What about the configuration in your VM? Please also post

Code:
brctl show
 
brctl show:
Code:
bridge name     bridge id               STP enabled     interfaces
vmbr0           8000.1866da388c69       no              eth0
                                                        veth100i0
 
The Connection to my VM is working.

@Mr-Wagner

is this a default Debian image or an Image from a Datacenter Provider like HEtzner, OVH, etc?
What PVE Version do you use?
