I tried to setup a new interface in /etc/network/interfaces and when I tried to make the new interface up, proxmox raise this error



Code:
warning: vmbr2: post-up cmd 'iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s '192.168.10.0/24' -o enp38s0 -j MASQUERADE' failed: returned 3 (iptables v1.8.7 (legacy): can't initialize iptables table `nat': Table does not exist (do you need to insmod?)
Perhaps iptables or your kernel needs to be upgraded.
)

Any Solution please?
 
It would help to see your /etc/network/interfaces file. Also if you copied the command from somewhere, make sure the single quotes are actually single quotes. Some websites use backticks for display. I had a similar error due to that yesterday. Though yours seems different. The error message would be about the /24 part instead of the nat part.
