DHCP Server Bug: IP gets allocated for the guest vm, but DNS only get set on network restart
-
There was a bug observed when the guest VM sends a DHCP request to pfSense, the IP gets assigned but the DNS is not getting set unless a network restart is done in the guest VM. Can this issue be resolved?
Or is only the workaround of the network restart is applicable in this case?

What is a VM here, pfsense and some other guest - just pfsense? Just some guest vm you have running on what proxmox, esix, virtualbox, hyper-v, qemu ?
What are you restarting exactly? The dns that is provided by dhcp - your saying pfsense is not handing that out? In the dhcp offer? Did the client ask for it?
Lets see your dhcp packet capture.. Example - here is a dhcp exchange..
You can see in the discover and request client asking for dns, and in the offer and ack the dhcp server sending the info.
So your saying even though the dhcp client asks for dns - the dhcp server is not sending it?
But then you restart "network" which means what exactly? Reboot the vm, reboot the host, disable enable some interface either physical or virtual? Some other network reset in the os like "netsh int ip reset" in windows?
