So the title really is my problem. I've installed proxmox on my server (Dell R710) and iDRAC shows as displayed on my routers DHCP table, but I'm unable to ping my router when I boot up. Because of this I also can't connect to the web interface.
 
I might be wrong but if iDRAC shows on your DHCP and nothing else you plugged in the wrong interface.
in the back of your server should be several network ports.
one of them is iDRAC port but the rest are network. iDRAC is a dedicated port as in it only belong to iDRAC. if you want to use it you need 2 cables plugged in into your network, 1 for iDRAC and 1 for networking.

change the cable to one of the others here
