Comment on Going nuts with networking of VMs on Proxmox (SOLVED)
trilobite@lemmy.ml 1 week agoCan I just check with @tiptoes@sh.itjust.works and @Eggymatrix@sh.itjust.works that what I’m doing is what you are saying.
I’m not setting static IPs at client level. Would be a nightmare. What I do is assign IPs on the DHCP server i.e MAC address on VM1 is XX:XX:XX:XX so I set this MAC address in DHCP to correspond to IP 192.168.20:XX so that the machine gets a unique IP all the time. Is this what you meant? I thought everyone would be doing this nowadays as it so easy to manage, except when something goes wrong like in this case.

No what I meant is I don’t use dhcp at all, but apparently I am an old gremlin and all these youngsters do it some variation of your way. If you want ro do it like that I leave you with them.
No worries, I just don’t want to get you confused
