My ISP recently had a problem where the main fibre connection was cut and the internet was down for two days since this has returned I have cycled my ISP router from standard to modem mode and my USFF Machine running ESX with a VM for Sophos XG no longer picks up an IP via DHCP on the WAN interface.
This previously used to happen when I'd deploy a fresh VM for Sophos and I'd have to keep redeploying a fresh image until it worked.
No matter how many times I power cycle and wait I still can't get an IP from the router in modem mode from an unchanged/fresh install.
Is there any tricks/special rules/commands I'm overlooking to force this to occur?
My current configuration is: Modem mode router -> single interface to ESX host (WAN) -> second interface from ESX host to gigabite switch (LAN)
These are in seperate port groups and correctly mapped in ESX and botha ctive in Sophos:
