Unable to access your TrueNAS host from a VM? Host unreachable? Then you need a Bridge Network!
In this video tutorial I explain TrueNAS Bridge Networking, how to configure a Static IP and make a Network Bridge without losing connectivity, and how to set bridge networking on your VMs and Sandboxes/Jails in order to correct Host/VM network issues.
And finally I performance test the bridge network
Saw your posters in the background. May the 4th be with you!
Set up your main interface with static IP by disabling DHCP and adding IP alias (use the same IP you are connected to for easy results)
Test Changes and then Save them (important)
Edit your main interface, remove the alias IP
Don't click Test Changes
Add a bridge, name it something like br0, select your main interface as a member and add the IP alias that you had on main interface
Click Apply and then Test Changes
after applying all this is faults back and ip is not assigned to br0
Did you shutdown any jails, virtual machines and your apps pool?
