Hi We are about to install proxmox VE 8.4.1 we are having a guest os as QNX 4.0 but unfortunately this OS doesnot supports the nic card which is available in proxmox QNX 4.0 but in VMware environment it supports legacy nic not in PROXMOX can you please help with this issue
 
Hi,
which ones did you try? Which model did you have previously in VMware? Note that the UI does not list all options that are supported, all of the following NIC models can be set via CLI:
model=<e1000 | e1000-82540em | e1000-82544gc | e1000-82545em | e1000e | i82551 | i82557b | i82559er | ne2k_isa | ne2k_pci | pcnet | rtl8139 | virtio | vmxnet3>

Hello Arulanand! Could you please post the VM configuration (that is, the output of qm config <VMID>)?

It is possible to choose between several NICs in Proxmox VE - please check out our documentation. Also, you can find further NIC models in the qm documentation - please check the model option of net[n].

Please try changing the NIC and see if it helps. Since QNX 4.0 is an older OS, you might want to try using the Realtek 8139 NIC (rtl8139). You can also try to see if ne2k_pci works - according to this source, it should be compatible with QNX.

Yes, we understand that. But could you please:
  1. Provide us with the information I requested above (the output of qm config <VMID>).
  2. Try other NICs, as @fiona and I suggested above.

Thanks for providing us with the VM configuration. As @fiona and I both suggested above, please try to change the e1000e NIC to an older network card, e.g. ne2k_pci, and see if it helps. Please keep in mind that you might need to turn off (not just restart) the VM completely for the changes to take effect.
