SOLVED Yet another Bridge setup issue

[ozoo]

Hi

I've been having issues configuring a bridge in TrueNas Scale (22.02.4) to allow communication between my workstation, Truenas and hosted VMs
I've been following recommendations from several threads, and I reached a point where I can't access Truenas UI
As mentioned in other threads, I created a bridge, added my NIC enp1s0 to it, set the static IP 192.168.111.14 to the bridge, flushed arp caches, and rebooted TrueNAS (and my workstation) several times.

My workstation can ping the VM in TrueNAS (and so is the VM able to ping my workstation), so that part is working.
The big issue is now TrueNAS cannot be accessed anymore, even from the VM, (so I can only interact with it from the UI)

Working | 192.168.111.5 (Workstation) <-> 192.168.111.4 (VM in TrueNAS)
Not Working | 192.168.111.14 (TrueNAS) not reachable by anyone

Any idea what could be causing TrueNas to refuse to be reached?
Thanks in advance :)

Can the truenas ping its gateway and internet?

Best to do a full hardware and networking description....

Thank you so much for your help.
While reviewing the network one more time before posting, I realized I made a mistake when I set the static IP of the bridge.
I forgot to add the /24 for the mask.
When I looked at the ifconfig on the Truenas server, I discovered the mask was set to 255.255.255.255
Reconfiguring the bridge with 192.168.111.14/24 did the trick and everything is working now.

Thanks a lot
