OMG! I can't believe I had not tried this. I guess I was avoiding using a template period. Now I understand, it's just a base point. Thank you so much!

Apologies if this ends up being a duplicate post but I cannot seem to find a solution to my issue -- even after having combed these forums and watching everything Tom Lawrence has to offer RE XCP-ng.

I've just stood up a new XCP-ng server and am configuring the network. I have three identical servers (each with dual 40-core Xeons, 512GB RAM, 10x 1.92TB NVMe SSD, Dual Quad Port 1G NIC's && a Dual 10G DAC NIC). However, I'm just working on the first one atm.

My problem: I cannot seem to get any of the NIC's to show as options when creating VM's -- this is a 'me' problem, I realize. I'm sure it's a simple solution, though I have not been able to locate one.

Here's a screen shot of my list of NIC's:

I've dedicated a single NIC to the management network (though contemplating a redundant bond), I've created two LACP bonds - one for migration, the other for backup, and lastly I have one 10G NIC dedicated toward VM traffic as the other is for direct access to the NAS that houses all my VM's.

I've not assigned any VLAN's. Truth be told, I'm not entirely familiar with this yet on XCP-ng and so, for now, I am going to let our switches handle VLAN's atm.

Here's what I see when I try to add a NIC to a new VM upon creation:

Not sure what is happening here. I am a total n00b to XCP-ng. I do have extensive experience with Citrix, Proxmox, and vSphere though. So, hopefully this is just something simple I can resolve.

Thanks in advance and I'm very excited to be part of these forums!
