After reboot, ifconfig will not be able to configure network interfaces for VLAN tagging. It appears to be set correctly after reboot but packets will not be tagged thus dropped on the switch. Once the above freebsd-update install has completed, ifconfig will work correctly and the host will have network access again. Workaround: 1. Using IPMI/LOM access, login as root and issue freebsd-update install (not desirable for non-IPMI access on a remote host) 2. Allowing sufficient time for a reboot, put a future cron job in place that executes freebsd-update install && shutdown -r now > It is recommended to rebuild and install all applications if possible, > especially if upgrading from an earlier FreeBSD release, for example, > FreeBSD 11.x.
