Re: bhyve VM not getting as much upload bandwidth as the host

I had the following in sysctl.conf:
net.link.tap.up_on_open=1
net.link.bridge.pfil_member=0
net.link.bridge.pfil_bridge=0
net.link.bridge.pfil_local_phys=1

So I only did:
sysctl -w net.link.bridge.pfil_onlyip=0
sysctl -w net.link.bridge.pfil_local_phys=0

Nothing has changed for the linux VM.

Windows11 VM is getting download/upload speed of 40Mbps/37Mbps while a
Debian12 VM is getting download/upload of 37Mbps/45Kbps.
Maybe there is an issue with the Linux itself?
