Fresh Proxmox VE 2.1 installation with defaults can't be reached or pinged
- by Damainman
I am using the lastest Proxmox VE 2.1.
My server has two NICS with a uplink only connected into eth0.
My Server is a co-located server utilizing public IPv4 IPs.
It is not behind a firewall or any system which monitors traffic.
Via IPKVM I did a fresh install of Proxmox, I put in the correct IP, Mask, Gateway, and DNS information. The install went perfectly fine with no errors.
Upon completion and rebooting the system:
I am unable to reach the web GUI via the browser, it just times out.
I am unable to ping the server.
I am unable to ping outside to the Internet from within the server. Tried pinging out to 4.2.2.2 and yahoo.com
I tried rebooting the server and restarting the network service.
IFCONFIG shows my IP information under vmbro0 which also has the same MAC address as the eth0 device.
eth0 only displays a IPv6 Scope:Link address, which I did not setup myself.
This is my first time installing proxmox, but after searching for a few hours it doesn't seem like anyone else is having the same issue as me from a fresh install with just the defaults. So far the only thing I did was install it.
Also, I know the network cable is good and the IP is good because I was running a Xen XCP server with the same network settings prior to wiping it to install proxmox.
