[SOLVED] VM no internet access

[Tyresa]

Hello Guys,

First time using proxmox here.

I'm having some difficulties getting my VM connected to the internet (just browsing etcetera).

I'm at the point where I'm able to ping my Host, but im unable to ping anything else.
Internet connectivity on the host machine is fine.

For my virtual machine I'm using ip: 192.168.1.2/24

I'm clearly missing something but I really have no idea what.
Any help would be appriciated.

The reason you are able to ping the host is because it's on the same bridge as your VM (vmbr1).
The reason you can't reach the internet is because vmbr1 is not per se routed through eno1. You have to configure that or put your VM on vmbr0.

Something is definitely not clear yet, I dont know why I wont understand.

I have reinstalled proxmox and it auto creates vmbr0, so it automatically creates a bridge.

I want to use NAT, I have one public IP.

I have checked the Proxmox link which you have sended me, but there is a little difference.
In the link the public IP's are configured on the ethernet port and than a bridge is created with the private IP's.

Mine automatically creates a bridge with my Public ip.

I must be missing something, thanks in advance.

Yes, the standard way is vmbr0 with the external IP address. You can configure that the way you want, though.

The first step to make this work is configure my eno1 interface with my public ip right?
And then create a bridge for my private ip?

The moment I assign my the public IP to the eno1, I'm no longer able to access the webpage/ping, there is no connectivity at all.

Ah,, so I finally got it.
I tried it all over again and for some reason It's working now.

Perhaps I forgot the 'autostart' checkbox when I configured the eno1 port the first time, im not sure.

Glad it works now! It can be a bit complicated when you configure it the first time.
