1. Why is this required?

For some reason, Truenas Scale default networking config, prevents VMs from being able to ping the local IP of truenas scale host.

An Example:
  • Let's say you have this truenas scale host PC called A with an IP address of 10.0.0.48:

  • And you have created a virtual machine, which has an IP of 10.0.0.49:

  • If you enter ping 10.0.0.48 on the VM, it would not be able to get a response
  • In order to fix this, a bridge interface needs to be created.
