All - I know there have been many posts regarding similar issues - and I apologize for positing if this has already been addressed - but I've been trying to shift from ESXi for five days and am at the end of my rope. For background I've been running ESXi homelabs + Unifi infrastructure for years. Networks are defined and managed within Unifi at the port level (specific ports dedicated to specific networks).
In my new proxmox instance I have created three bridges: vmbr0 for accessing the interface (on same network as Internal network), Internal for internal network traffic, and vmbr1ext assigned to external network traffic. (Internal and vmbr0 are 10.0.0.x, vmbr1ext is 172.22.x.x)
Any VM assigned to the Internal bridge is assigned an IP and works flawlessly. Anything connected to the vmbr1ext bridge does not get an IP assigned to the VM nor do the VM's (MAC) show up in unifi - however the network card does.
Below is my /etc/network/interfaces file. Any help would be greatly appreciated - again I apologize if I overlooked something insanely simple. And also note the VM's being attributed to the external network are Windows and Linux based - none act like they have any uplink at all (showing disconnected).
