pve-firewall: Restart the Proxmox VE Firewall service.
$ pve-firewall restart
try on your machine

The command "pve-firewall restart" refers to restarting the Proxmox Virtual Environment (PVE) firewall service.

In the context of Proxmox, the PVE firewall is a built-in firewall solution that provides network security and access control for virtual machines and containers running on a Proxmox cluster.

When you run the command "pve-firewall restart," it will stop the firewall service if it is currently running and then start it again. This can be useful if you made changes to the firewall rules or configuration and want to apply those changes without rebooting the entire system.

By restarting the PVE firewall, any modifications or updates made to the firewall settings will take effect immediately, ensuring that the firewall is properly configured and providing the desired level of security for your virtual machines and containers.
