Hello everyone,

Recently I upgraded my router by implementing a SFF PC running pfSense. I am not sure why but lately I have been losing internet connection on my VMs which are setup with static IP addresses. I have tried to disable IPv6, and several other things to assist. The host is an PowerEdge R410 with dual NIC; both cards working fine on some VMs.

The only VMs I seem to have trouble out of are the Ubuntu ones running netplan. I am still showing the correct IP address via "ip a" but when I try to ping google or anywhere else, it fails to resolve.

I don't see anything in dmesg; how else can I log what the heck is happening?
 
I wonder if pfSense router is trying to change IP with DHCP. I think these IPs not being outside of the DHCP pool are causing arp entry errors.

I also notice for some reason the two MAC for the nic seem to be swapping control of the host IP in pfSense logs... Not sure wtf going on there
