Apologies in advanced if my question here is trivial as I am a beginner in proxmox and in networking.
I have a proxmox installed on a Thinkcenter m70q and has few VM's already hosted. I created a second Linux Bridge using a USB to NIC adapter since the micro pc Thinkcenter m70q on has 1. I used the network interface of the USB to NIC for vmbr1 which is connected to my network switch connected to a pfsense router/firewall. I was able to successfully create the Linux Bridge, however it is still getting the IP from the eno1 network interface which is my management interface assigned as vmbr0. I created the second linux bridge to separate my management network to my VM network.
I tested it on multiple VM's and get the same result.
vmbr1 is assigned 10.10.10.0/24
vmbr0 is assigned 192.168.1.102/24

Appreciate if you can nudge me on the right direction.
