      I run Windows 10 on Host and VM Ware Workstation with vm pfsense and vm windows 10. On a reboot or restart vm pfsense boots first and vm windows 10 on 1 min delay, All devices on lan get proper ip except Host.

      The only way I can solve no ip for host is to unplug lan cable to host when rebooting or restart and wait for pfsense to start then plug in the lan cable and I get valid ip right away.

      Please let me know if there is and easy fix I am overlooking.

        Configure a static IP on the host.

          Thanks You.
