Hi everybody,
After almost a week setting up my freeNAS box, I've bumped into what it seems a bug, but don't want to file it yet may I be mistaken in the concept of how should it work.
My setup is a fresh 9.3 release install, any plugin I install works fine and gets random IP addresses from my router as they have random MACs. The problem comes when I try to set a fixed MAC to ANY plugin (tried with plex, minecraft and transmission). I set the MAC in the jail configuration, after stopping the plugin and the jail (in that order). When I restart the jail it boots up fine, but doesn't show the DHCP assigned IP in the GUI, and the plugins fails to start. In fact, the jail boots up but doesn't use the MAC I've set to it, it uses other one that I can't find where is it picking it from.
FYI, I've created an empty jail for services not availables as plugins (calibre server and others) and with the hand-made jails it works as expected when I set the MAC address, no problem at all.
I'm I doing something wrong??? I think I've readen everything related to plugins, jails and MAC to no avail. It looks like some sort of bug, as with standard jails works as supossed, but just to confirm.
Best regards
Angel
