Hello Community,

i have problems with my test proxmox server and the network (set static ip for the vm).
Actually my proxmox Host has this in /etc/network/Interfaces.

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
iface eth0 inet manual

auto vmbr0
iface vmbr0 inet static

address 192.168.3.19
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.3.1
bridge_ports eth0
bridge_stp off
bridge_fd 0

Now i installed a VM with debian8 and configured the /etc/network/interfaces like this:

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

allow-hotplug eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.3.190
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.3.1

On my Proxmox host i have two interfaces
Eth0 NetworkDevice not activ and no autostart
vmbr0 Linux Bridge activ autostart Port/slaves:eth0 192.168.3.19 255.255.255.0 192.168.3.1


The VM has access to the internet but i cant ping it or make ssh. Also the proxmox host cant ping the VM... If i check the ifconfig it is not my address its a 192.168.3.166

I am new with Proxmox and hope you can help me.

EDIT: I solved it by enableing the bridge mode

Thanks a lot,
HiTTi
