gmandar 1 Posted July 14, 2019 Report post Posted July 14, 2019 Hi All, I am following SCCM CB guides by Niall which are excellent source of SCCM LAB setup & I recommend my juniors to start with it their SCCM journey. I saw SmoothWall as router for this ( or I think PKI Lab) & I configured it. I am able to get internet access to my VMs. The only irritating part is whenever I restart the VM (after doing poweroff from cmd prompt), while loading OS, I get prompt to reconfigure NICs as they have changed. I initially suspected this because I am using Hyper-V and NIC setting for MAC address was Dynamic which is default. I changed it to static but no difference. I still get the prompt. Is any other config change needed for to retain NIC and MAC address mappings? I am using Windows 10 Pro- Hyper-V for setting Lab. Please see below screenshot of the prompt.

anyweb 480 Posted July 14, 2019 Report post Posted July 14, 2019 hmm odd, what type of vm did you create (gen1 or gen2) and are you using Legacy NICs ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gmandar 1 Posted July 14, 2019 Report post Posted July 14, 2019 Gen1 VM. Ohh.. I am Not using Legacy NIC. Is that causing problem? Let me check and revert. Thanks for quick reply. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
anyweb 480 Posted July 14, 2019 Report post Posted July 14, 2019 you need to use legacy nic's for smoothwall, at least that's what i use Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gmandar 1 Posted July 14, 2019 Report post Posted July 14, 2019 Yay! Adding Legacy NICs solved the problems it seems. I have powered off and restarted VM two times and no NIC config prompt appeared. Thanks a ton!:) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
