Hyper-V Default switch IP address range change. Ver 1809 Build 17763.1
Do you have any idea how to get this ip fixed ? Maybe we can run powershell script to change it after reboot ?
---------------------
Just tried to update IP on reboot with powershell script, it's ok to keep same IP , but the network doesn't
work for VMs.This is not way.
I haven't actually played around with all of my VM's yet. However - 1903 has fixed one of the Hyper-V Default Switch problems:
The Default Switch would always be set as a public network - this can be disruptive to other connected networks - as I don't trust that the MS Engineers did a good job with how Domain/Private/Public interact.
With 1903 - the Default Switch is not assigned a Network Category. Which is how it should have been to begin with.
It is always going to be a private network - as VM's can only use it to interact with other VM's on the Host and to the Host itself.. an Internal Network. Like I said... I don't trust the engineers to have done the network categories correctly, until now. Took 4 years.
Anyhow, I'm in the middle of updating the VM's on my laptop to 1903 and see what I can do in the Guest Machine.
