first some information about me. I ordered a server from ovh and purchased one failover ip to test proxmox and do some training.
The main Server is hosting proxmox(Example IP: 123.45.67.89 to figure out my problem)
Now i want to create a virtualized client(debian). This debian client should use the failover ip, which i ordered(Example IP: 222.222.222.222).
The network adapter has to be bridged, right? I can choose between these models:
- intel e1000
- virtIO (paravirtualized)
- Realtec RTL8139
- VMWare vmxnet3
Which is the right one for me? How can i check it?
After coming to the network configuration in debian, i cant figure out my problem.
- IP Adress:222.222.222.222
- netmask: 255.255.255.255 (is this right?)
- Gateway: 123.45.67.254(Because OVH is saying that i should use the .254)
After entering those information, i am getting an error, which says that this gateway is not reachable.
I hope my problem is clear.
Best regards,
Edit: I got some information about creating a virtual mac and binding it on proxmox to the debian client. Will it work after doing this with my configuration which i posted? I can try it in 2-3hours.

Here's what you need to do to add a public IP address to the VM :
This should get it working ! If something else isn't clear, OVH's guide for Proxmox might help you : http://help.ovh.com/Proxmox
