Static IPv6 Configuration on a Proxmox Hosted Debian KVM not working

#1 Post by Kreuzzes »

Good evening,

I've created this little Debian11 Machine on my Proxmox Cluster (on KVMDebian11 Picture) Image https://ibb.co/THBcy9x
As you can see I've added one Network Inteface wich is bridged. Since I'm not using any kind of DHCP
I decided to configure the IP Adresses static. I'm only using IPv6 so I edited /etc/network/interfaces to the following (KVMDebian11Interfaces Picture). Image https://ibb.co/9s5wFvs
Sadly after several reboots nothing changed and "ip addr" or "ip a" still shows me this output (KVMDebian11IPA Picture). Image https://ibb.co/px94DdZ
Its not taking any of my settings neither for eth0 nor for eth1. What am I doing wrong? I can't ping at any point so it seems to be unconfigured.
Resetting the config file and rebooting brought me the same "ip a" output.

Hello,

you should paste textual data whenever possible rather than posting images.
I can see several possible mistakes:
- Your config file is about eth0 and eth1 but 'ip addr" shows ens18, you have no eth* interface.
- 'auto eht0' in config file instead of 'auto eth0' (should be ens18 anyway I guess).
- eth0 and eth1 are configured with the same address.
