Hello,

I'm having issues with multiple Public IP's My current set up is thus.

On initial wizard setup I put in the details supplied by my ISP.

I was then issued with 2 other Public IP's this gives me 3 in total

Public IP 1 >>> Plesk (webserver, single machine, working as should)

Public IP 2 >>> Docker (installed on Proxmox VM, the forwarding is pointing to the VM and NOT the host machine)

Public IP 3 >>> Intended use point to Proxmox machine.

So IP 1 & 2 are working as they should all is well BUT at present if I want to access my Proxmox machine obviously I have to alter the source destination I can then access Proxmox on e.g 194.168.225.37:8006 But obviously then cannot access the Docker containers via the same IP.

When I added the second IP I watched a tutorial and added it as a Virtual IP BUT when I try this with the 3rd IP I get You cannot use the network address.

However if i just do a forward to the 3rd IP it works BUT that surely is not correct that it's not registered as an IP if you know what I mean.

Please show how you are trying to add the virtual IP address and the error message as screen shots.

Thank you for your response Patrick.

I have included screenshots of how I currently have things set up, I've had to post each image in a different post as I reach upload size.

This Is the 1st Public IP I'm using you will see this is also natted to 192.168.1.109 and is working as it should.

Current Nat settings all seem to be working as they should, I have tested the .40 Public IP by pointing to a Proxmox install and appears to be working(this is the one that won't add as an additional Public IP.)
