Hi all.

The default action on Fedora and RHEL-based distributions that use FirewallD is to ban DHCP requests. The solution to this issue is to add the interfaces to the trusted zone, which will allow all network traffic to the tap interfaces created by the environment.

The following commands update the firewall rules without them surviving a reboot.

sudo firewall-cmd --zone=trusted --remove-interface=lkt-tap0
sudo firewall-cmd --zone=trusted --remove-interface=lkt-tap1
sudo firewall-cmd --zone=trusted --remove-interface=lkt-tap-smbd

The best solution would be to update the create_net.sh and cleanup-net.sh to do this automatically.

Best wishes
Frey Alfredsson
