## Big Sur Related Issues
### Creating Network Devices
Starting with the Big Sur release VMware Fusion is no longer able to create
network devices with custom subnet and mask settings to attach to guests. This
means custom IP addresses are not valid when creating a private network. When
creating a private network device to attach to a guest, simply define it with
no options:
```ruby
Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
config.vm.box = "hashicorp/bionic64"
config.vm.network :private_network
end
```
### Port Forwarding
VMware Fusion currently does not support port forwarding to the localhost. To
work around this issue, the vagrant-vmware-utility provides functionality to
simulate port forwarding behavior available within VMware Fusion prior to
Big Sur. The port forward management is contained to the vagrant-vmware-utility
and is not accessible via the VMware Fusion networking UI.
### DHCP Reservations
Due VMware Fusion no longer utilizing its own service for DHCP, defining DHCP
reservations is currently not working with VMware Fusion on Big Sur.
