Hi everyone,

I would to connect to the proxmox server trough "Thinclient" (custom raspberry pi)

Is Proxmox offer a PXE/DHCP servers (or something else that I can install in the raspberry pi) in order for the client to boot then connect ?

Thanks

No, PVE is a Virtualized Environment and does not have a built-in PXE/DHCP server. You can however create a container or a VM of your choice to provide such a netboot boot server. Many people have (me included, at least for x86 hardware) and it works fine.
 
Thank you @LnxBil , you're totally right. I was thinking the same thing about VMize :) a PXE/DHCP within the PVE.
And actually PVE should not have one included.
