I installed Proxmox for the first time today and I am having one major issue at the moment.

During the network config in Ubuntu on the first VM created, it has the virtio network device grayed out. Should that be, or is that supposed to be selectable?

I tried configuring ens18 for its static IP, but that is unable to connect.

I ran across a few posts that said some web hosts only support relays and not bridged. I contacted my web host and they said bridge connections should work and that they have never received any complaints that it doesn't. They default proxmox installs to bridged even.

Attached are a couple screengrabs and below is my network config.

cat /etc/network/interfaces
# 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!

Good you've got it working. Maybe tag mark the thread-title with [SOLVED], (upper right hand corner under title).
