Hi All,


I'm just getting started with Bhyve. So far everything is working as expect=
ed. My original goal was to be running Ubuntu 12.04 i386 as I need it for a=
 particular project. One issue I'm having is MAC address spoofing. I'm awar=
e I can change the MAC address within Ubuntu but I'd like to configure the =
tap interface from the host which should be possible according to man pages=
.


Bhyve Man Page: https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=3Dbhyve&sektion=
=3D8



The issue I have is that by setting the below, the vm boots, I can console =
via null modem, but there is no eth0 interface, only the loopback. Removing=
 the static MAC, reboot and everything is present and correct.


-s 2:0,virtio-net,tap0,mac=3Dxx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx


I've gone through dmesg in Ubuntu, but see nothing obvious.


Any guidance gratefully received.


Regards

James
