The virtualization solution Proxmox VE (Proxmox Virtual Environment; shortened PVE) allows the passthrough of PCIe devices to individual virtual machines (PCIe passthrough).[1] A virtual machine can thus exclusively control a corresponding PCIe device, e.g. a network card. This has many advantages over virtualized hardware, such as reduced latency. This article shows which configuration steps are required on the Proxmox VE host and then in the VM to connect a network card to the VM.
