Hi to everyone,
I'm new on PROXMOX, i have installed it and i have assigned ip 192.168.200.99. My router connection have a static ip with 192.168.200.1. When i connect a new lan cable with ip 192.168.200.98 i haven't internet connection....If i type "/etc/network/interfaces" system say "permission denied". I'm confused about what to do...can you help me please? Thank you in advance to everyone and sorry for my bad english.
Mark.

"interfaces" is a text file. What you did in shell - is you tried to execute it, that would not work. If you want to view its context you can use "more" or "cat", ie
more /etc/network/interfaces

It also seems like you are trying to have your server multihomed whereby you have two network connections on the same subnet. Thats an exercise for above average system administrator and I would recommend you dont start there. Ie dont connect second cable.

To view your network status, in addition to context of "interfaces":
ip a
ip route
ping 192.168.200.1
ping 192.168.200.98

Thank you so much for your answer...i have typed that command and i have attach file for results...Ping on 192.168.200.98 it's ok but on 192.168.200.1 is "destination Host Unreachable" I need to have internet connection because i will install "Openmptcrouter" and for download image inside PROXMOX need internet connection...How should I set everything up? Thank you...

Have you already looked at this guide?

How did you try and determine this? Often it is simply the DNS servers that are missing or unreachable or you have specified a search domain.

Sorry, but I have to correct that immediately so that it doesn't get misremembered :)

Code: 
The name Proxmox

When referring to the Proxmox name, the first letter must be capitalized followed by lowercase letters like
for example: Proxmox
When referring to one of the Proxmox products use Proxmox together with the product name like for
example ‘Proxmox Virtual Environment’ (in short: Proxmox VE) or ‘Proxmox Mail Gateway’.
When referring to the company you can either use the name ‘Proxmox’ or the full company name ‘Proxmox
Server Solutions GmbH’.

DO:
• Proxmox
• Proxmox Virtual Environment (or Proxmox VE)
• Proxmox Mail Gateway
• Proxmox Server Solutions GmbH

DON'T:
• don’t use all lower case (no: proxmox)
• don’t use all uppercase (no: PROXMOX)
• don’t mix upper- and lowercase in the middle of the name (never: ProxMox)
• don’t simply use our website URL in a sentence instead of the name Proxmox (no: “The company
proxmox.com is...’ if you want to say: ‘The company Proxmox is...’)

See: https://www.proxmox.com/en/about/media-kit

Because for example if i try "ping www.google.com" i get "temporary failure in name resolution" or something like that...

Yes but I didn't understand how to set up to have an internet connection... perhaps it should be set as a bridge i.e. for example the Proxmox server on 192.168.150.1 and the LAN connection on 192.168.155.1? Can you direct me on how best to set up the network?

But that doesn't mean that you don't have an internet connection. Your ping also requires a DNS server that can resolve the name into an IP. Try pinging the Google DNS servers 8.8.8.8 instead of google.com.

I already have that, the Wiki article contains all possible types. The linked bridge setup is probably the most common one.

Show us the contents of your network configuration (cat /etc/network/interfaces) and DNS servers (cat /etc/resolv.conf).

And please avoid screenshots and use the code tag [CODE][/CODE] (NOT inline code tag!).

This is my situation...

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

I have no idea what you did, but translating a config file or output is the worst thing you can do. The code tag ([CODE][/CODE]) does not need to be translated either. Please repost it properly without any translation.

Remove the "search local" from this file.

Please also the output of ip a and ip r.

Your network config looks okay at first. As noted above, “search” may have been your “internet problem”. Because obviously you can access the server via SSH.

Your "internet problem" is ultimately not a problem but just a DNS problem and you could probably have pinged IPs directly without any problems.

So will I have to set up the network according to a bridge scheme? But apparently that wouldn't work for me...
 
I think I've solved it...I set the Proxmox IP to 10.0.0.1/24, the DNS to 1.1.1.1 and 1.0.0.1
You were right, the problem was the DNS because by changing them I can now ping everything... thanks again! A greeting.
