Description David Chisnall freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2015-10-09 09:52:37 UTC 
To make the VM images work out of the box, they should default to DHCP (and IPv6 autoconfiguration).  People are either going to try them in a VM that does DHCP or one that doesn't.  If it does DHCP, then they now don't need to manually configure the network.  If it doesn't, then they're going to need manual autoconfiguration irrespective of whether the VM tries to use DHCP.
