I guess you have reasons to prefer nfs over nullfs.

I don't see how /usr/local is related to IP address assigning...

Hmm, do you assing an IP address to your if_tap(4) interfaces at your
bhyve-host?

if_tap(4) is used for interconnecting bhyve(8)'s virtio-net "backend"
with the host's host-IP stack via the character device /dev/tapX.
The if_tap(4) interfaces on the host mustn't get the guest's (clients)
IP address!  The address must be assigned to the if_vtnet(4) interface
_inside_ the guest (I call it the front-end of bhyve's virtio-net) –
done usually in /etc/rc.conf – no relation to /usr/local…

But chances are good I misunderstood something, either your setup or
your results... Else I can't explain what you see other than the above
scenario.
