      Hello everyone.

      We are using a KVM virtualized pfsense with virtio network interfaces. Is it possible to add new interfaces to the VM without a server reboot?.

      We tried to add the interface to the VM dynamically and qEMU adds it without problems, but the FreeBSD kernel does not show through dmesg any updates related with new network interfaces. Is it possible to refresh the interfaces online?

      Thank you very much for your help
