proxmox does not receive ip

It looks like you did not configure /etc/network/interfaces for DHCP in order to get an IP for Proxmox via DHCP. Also, Proxmox does not come with a DHCP client out of the box (unless I''m mistaken) and it does not refresh it's IP via DHCP unless you configure it to do so. There is also a whole sub-forum about networking: https://forum.proxmox.com/forums/proxmox-ve-networking-and-firewall.17/
Proxmox can do DHCP, but it's subject to a funny restriction that its hostname must resolve to its routable IP, even if it's just a single node.
I have seen people doing weird things with hooks to update /etc/hosts on DHCP assigning new IP, but for me, for single node, this is just fine:

If you have a static IP reserved on that DHCP, you may get away with /etc/hosts with that one fixed, but I feel it defeats the purpose of, well, DHCP.
