Testing Proxmox on Vbox with 2 NICs

[ruben23]

Hi guys, im new to proxmox- i would like to ask regarding testing proxmox on my Virtual Box apps, my host OS is windows 7. My setup is i have a PC directly connected to my modem and getting a Dynamic IP directly form ISP so i can do browsing on internet, now what i do is added 2 Nics for my Poxmox server (1 NAT and 1 Host Only)- NAT= will do the address transaltion of my Publci IP dynamiclly assigned by my ISP and host only so i can access the Proxmox server on my PC.

-I can setup and run proxmox web admin after install using the Local host Adapter(NIC) on my Vbox but the NAT adapter for my Vbox even i rebooted many time- theer is no IP assigned to it (whihc i expect to be a NAted IP fo my publci IP)- so chances is i can get internet for my VPS when i create since the proxmox itself dont have access to internet.

Any ideas on this guys..Hope this is clear as i explained it. Thanks

Hi,
perhaps i understand not right, but proxmox use default no dhcp - the fixed address (during install) is used by vmbr0 which bridged to eth0 (but perhaps it's used your eth1?).

BTW. Proxmox is made for baremetal - to run in another virtual environment makes no sense (and kvm don't work (without nested paging)).
