Server 2019 Datacenter can't create Static IP for Virtual Switch
When you create a new external vSwitch the internet protocols are removed from the adapter and the Hyper-V Extensible Switch protocol is added turning that physical port into a multi-port virtual switch. Connect your VMs to this vSwitch and use each VM's vEthernet to configure the addressing in the exact same manner as if it were a physical NIC

Thanks very much Dave. It's so easy when you know what you're doing. Worked like a charm.
It also answered my second question. I had left the 'Allow management operating system to share this network adapter' box checked and the Server Manager Properties Screen for the Core gives me all of the info I dneed about whichphtsical adapter it is.
Glad to hear, you're welcome.
Thank you. I'll do it when I'm back in my office later this afternoon
