Proxmox not obtaining ip adress through DHCP after shutdown

[rado]

Hello and welcome,

I'm new to Proxmox and I have a problem. I would be grateful if someone could help me.

The goal: to install Proxmox on my HP t620 terminal.

Steps:
1. I successfully downloaded and made bootable usb with the Proxmox.
2. I successfully installed and started Proxmox.

Now, I can log in to the proxmox console and the web interface without any problems. I can also reboot the proxmox, the GNU GRUB appears, I'm selecting PVE GNU/Linux and it starts normally. I've also checked that my router (I made an IP adress reservation) is "giving" a proper IP address... untill I shutdown the terminal and turn it on again. If I do and boot it up again proxmox is not obtaining DHCP. Instead, I'm getting information as on the screen.

Can anyone have had such a problem and solved it?

Best Regards,
Radek

Your computer does not find any local media to boot on.
So in it's Bios configuration (often) after trying to boot all local sources (hd, USB, DVD, etc ...), it tries to boot on the network using the BOOTP protocol.
BOOTP tries to contact a server that will give it an IP address and a TFTP server to load an OS Boot image thru the network.
Your screen shows the BOOTP process waiting for its IP address ...

Thank you for your answer Pierre, can you guess what might be causing my problem?

Hello
Go into your Bios settings (usually hit ESC or SUPPR when computer starts before it starts to load OS) and see what is detected by your Bios as storage and what is your boot order.
