    Core external network switch IP address misalignment

    Right click on the new adapter and select Properties->Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) and set a static IP that is not currently used on your network, for example IP address: 192. No other settings are required. Click Ok and close. After rebooting the Hyper-V virtualization host, the SET switch unexpectedly changes from External to Internal, leaving all other network adapters in a state where they obtain their own IP addresses via DHCP or APIPA. Setting a static IP fixes the issue but. What if a static IP address is needed for some of the VM's on a Windows 10/11 Hyper-V instance? Works well. until the Hyper-V host reboots. Reboot the Windows 10/11 host and find the Hyper-V Default Network (and interface IP address) has changed. breaking connectivity for guest VM's with static. Is it possible to change the IP address range used by the Hyper-V (Default Switch) that is 172. Then you'll see that info with show edp port <> detail. Thanks! 07-04-2016 03:51 PM EXOS v12.
