"device tuntap" is included in GENERIC since 251a32b5b2bab (2019!). So this entry is not relevant for the 14.1-RELEASE to 14.2-RELEASE update. What files have you modified? > If anyone has a working tap device using FreeBSD 14.2-RELEASE, I would > appreciate you sharing your bhyve portions of /etc/rc.conf, /etc/sysctl.conf > and /boot/loader.conf files. You should be able to create tun/tap interfaces with "ifconfig tun0 create" or "ifconfig tap0 create". What error do you get?
