Setting up PVE

You may choose to use one of your ports as a dedicated management port with an IP directly assigned so that it is isolated and independent of VM traffic so there are circumstances where you might want to do that. Also you could create a bridge on a port and not assign a default IP at all - it depends on what you're trying to achieve.
I have a /29 so basically I would like to assign dedicated/static IPs to the KVMs or Containers I will be creating.

How can I achieve this?

use a simple network configuration like this [0]

network configuration is different for CT and VM.

CT network configuration is handled by PVE, simply setting IP to static and typing it in should work.

For VMs it depends on the guest (windows,linux etc.) so the network configuration is done inside the VM.

if you're confused about the network config in general i suggest you read/skim the whole page especially look at the diagrams and find the setup that you want to do
