            Bug ID: 266586
           Summary: vnet bridge with IP address is not working after
                    reboot
           Product: Base System
           Version: 13.1-STABLE
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: kern

Actually there is not documentation on how to implement vnet jails in the
handbook . I did it my self years ago , but it would be handy to have a
reference. I can provide it after we have discussed this problem. 

My setup looks like the picture attached to the bug. This setup works except ,
that the host can't use a service which are hosted inside a vnet jail. 

People recommend me to move the ip from the "physical" lan interface to the
bridge . I followed the advise and it works ! I can successfully use the
service like dns or any other protocol which is hosted in the jail , until I
reboot the machine and the rc.conf will takeover and create the setup for me .
Instead it creates a mess , ip addresses are not set or the member is attached
to the bridge , but the ip address is not configured... 

When the rc.conf create the setup for me the host is no able communicate
anymore , because the IP addresses are not attached to the interfaces or the
main lan interface is attached to the bridge but then the IP address is missing
. If I do the setup manually , it works. 


Manually steps. 
# vtnet0 does not have an IP address . 

ifconfig bridge1 addm vtnet0
ifconfig bridge1 inet 192.168.10.100 netmask 255.255.255.0
ifconfig bridge1 addm vtnet0
ifconfig vnet0 up

# Jails behind the bridge can be reached. The host system is able to ssh into
the jail .

To make it reboot stable I tried the following rc.conf



cloned_interfaces="bridge1"                                                     
ifconfig_bridge1="inet 192.168.10.100 netmask 255.255.255.0"                    
ifconfig_bridge1="addm vtnet0"


# after the reboot , the brigde1 does not have an IP address , but why ? I
don't get it.

# this fixes the issue

ifconfig bridge1 inet 192.168.10.100 netmask 255.255.255.0
