After installing proxbox backup server and running the service it looks like the proxmox backup server is listening to port 82 not to 8007

Bash:
ss -tulpn

udp        UNCONN       0            0                        0.0.0.0:68                    0.0.0.0:*          users:(("dhclient",pid=324,fd=7))                                                   
udp        UNCONN       0            0                      127.0.0.1:323                   0.0.0.0:*          users:(("chronyd",pid=380,fd=5))                                                     
udp        UNCONN       0            0                          [::1]:323                      [::]:*          users:(("chronyd",pid=380,fd=6))                                                     
tcp        LISTEN       0            128                    127.0.0.1:82                    0.0.0.0:*          users:(("proxmox-backup-",pid=23236,fd=13),("proxmox-backup-",pid=23236,fd=12))     
tcp        LISTEN       0            128                      0.0.0.0:22                    0.0.0.0:*          users:(("sshd",pid=525,fd=3))                                                       
tcp        LISTEN       0            128                         [::]:22                       [::]:*          users:(("sshd",pid=525,fd=4))

and proxmox backup server also listen to 127.0.0.1 , not to 0.0.0.0

how to change this and is there any config file of proxmox backup server?
 
yes and no. the daemon listening on localhost:82 is 'proxmox-backup-api' running as root. proxmox-backup-proxy is the one a client connects to, and it should listen publically on port 8007. check systemctl status proxmox-backup-proxy for why it does not

yes I notice that and I run the proxmox-backup-proxy service

systemctl start proxmox-backup-proxy

Bash:
udp         UNCONN       0            0                        0.0.0.0:68                     0.0.0.0:*           users:(("dhclient",pid=362,fd=7))                                                
tcp         LISTEN       0            1024                   127.0.0.1:82                     0.0.0.0:*           users:(("proxmox-backup-",pid=436,fd=13),("proxmox-backup-",pid=436,fd=12))      
tcp         LISTEN       0            128                      0.0.0.0:22                     0.0.0.0:*           users:(("sshd",pid=553,fd=3))                                                    
tcp         LISTEN       0            1024                           *:8007                         *:*           users:(("proxmox-backup-",pid=658,fd=14),("proxmox-backup-",pid=658,fd=13))      
tcp         LISTEN       0            128                         [::]:22                        [::]:*           users:(("sshd",pid=553,fd=4))                                                    
root@proxmoxbackup:/backup#
