virtual network between server and vm

[giovannirizzello]

hi, I'm really a noob here so excuse me if this is some really easy stuff but I cant figure it out. I've got a vm with my gpu, wifi and usb cards passed, so I use it as a desktop. my ethernet port isn't passed to anything cuz that's how I connect promos to my network. I want to unplug it, but still be able to use the web interface, so I want to set up a virtual network that allows me to view the proxmox web ui from the VM's browser, any help would be really appreciated. thanks

Attach your VM to this bridge and just asssign it an ip address for that network

Sidenote though:
If you unplug your proxmox from the internet, it will also not be able to get updates, nor will you be able to reach it from outside of the VM if something breaks on the VM that you need the proxmox-gui to fix (console directly via attaching a screen/keyboard will be a possibility though)
So maybe just keeping it as-is would be better.

I know but I can't really leave it plugged in 24/7, but if I need it I can still plug the cable in when I need it
