You need to run bhyve but replace the Windows ISO with the virtio-net driver ISO, which you can download off the Internet; Then install the network driver through VNC. The guest has a "virtio-net" interface which is created by bhyve - This has nothing to do with your motherboard and you do not need to install any of the motherboard or physical interface drivers in the guest. I have virtio-win-0.1.96.iso in the .iso section. Use that instead of the null-install.iso ?? > > Once you have the virtio driver installed, you will have a "Redhat VirtIO" network adapter in Windows, and you can assign an IP/Netmask/Gateway to this just as you normally would in Windows. > > Forget about the Linux machines. They have the virtio-net driver built in, so you can just configure eth0 out-of-the-box like normal. If you've configured their IP addresses on the bhyve host then that's not really the correct way to configure things, even if it doesn't actually break anything; The IP address should be configured inside the guest OS. > > Matt > > > ???>Can you guys confirm that you actually have a Windows 2016 vm running? > > >As I have said, I have installed nearly every version of Windows OS vms with Bhyve (vm-bhyve) successfully with the >exception of Windows 2016. > > >DHCP does not work.
