Proxmox in OVH (SoYouStart) - Do I need to buy IP addresses?
Hello guys, I'm sure you can help. I'm renting a dedi from OVH (eco line - SoYouStart). I installed Proxmox so to play a little bit with VMs. After installing Proxmox, and creating my first VM (Ubuntu 22.04 server) I noticed that I do not have internet access.
Do I need to have an additional public IP for each VM? Or maybe just one new IP and then use it to create VLANs? Either way, is it correct if I say that it is necessary to buy an IP address?
I hope to get away without needing a new IP. Please let me know.

I have written a tutorial about that:

It is for Kimsufi but works with OVH routers.
One thing to remember, if you have many bridges with a lot of port forwarding, specify the interface in the iptables rules.
