Bridged networking in UTM

Run ifconfig in Terminal to find out the name of the main ethernet interface on your Mac. It will be something like en0 through to en9. In my case it’s en6.

Once you have the interface name, go into your VM’s Settings in UTM, then plug this interface name into the Bridged Interface field.

Power up the VM and it’s interface should now pick up an IP if you have DHCP configured.

      Yup. My active Ethernet device name was en11 because I’ve been messing around with Lima, I’m guessing. Anyway, change the device name in UTM to whichever device in MacOS has an IP configured.
