I shut down my proxmox server to install a new storage adapter in it in preparation of setting up a truenas core vm. In the bios I enabled pcie bifurcation to split one 16x slot into four x4 slots (and no other changes I can recall). The storage card currently has two pcie drives installed.
Upon restart there were no obvious errors, however I've been unable to reconnect to it on the ip address shown at the console (which remains unchanged) and it no longer appears on the network. The virtual machines and containers appear to be okay and accessible (thankfully my pfsense vm is still functioning). I believe I have restarted this server previously without issue, so I think this is a direct result of adding the new hardware.
**I suspect the hardware changes have resulted in some of my network interfaces getting new id's and I have to re-map the primary host interface to restore access. I just don't know *how* to accomplish that. From other posts I found a few commands to help gather some data. Hopefully someone can point me in the right direction and maybe even advise how to avoid this situation in the future. Any help would be appreciated.

My server has two onboard ports plus a four port add-in card. PFSENSE uses the add-in card ports (for WAN and LAN) while the host is connected to my LAN switch via the top onboard port. My server acts as my router in this configuration.
