Hi all !
I want to use xcp-ng for my homelab because why not, terraform and I like to use more uncommon tools (it often bites me afterward but it's funnier this way). Right now, I am on a road block because I can't set a management interface, and I can't do it because using DHCP times out and I can't set static IP on my ISP's router. Anyone with an idea ?

Edit : an emergency network reset solved the issue. I think I plugged and unplugged multiple time during the uptime, maybe it caused the issue

I know the feeling.

How about this: https://docs.xcp-ng.org/installation/install-xcp-ng/#9-networking

Try setting a static ip address on xcp-ng itself, during the install phase. (this was how devices got onto networks before dhcp). You'll have to make sure it doesn't conflict with anything else on the network.

I did not see your answer. As per the edit : the emergency network reset solved the issue. Thank you for your answer
