August 24, 2025Aug 24 Hi Everyone!Is there a networking guide somewhere for unraid?I have a few questions regarding nic's, enabling vlans, connecting them to the VM, what physical nics are supported in unraid for nic expansion etc... My search through the forms hasn't returned anything yet, and the unraid manual only has brief overview. aka'''Network SettingsBy default, Unraid will attempt to get an IP address from a DHCP server present on your local network (typically by your router). From this page, you can configure a static IP address, set up bonding, bridging, or other options. Setting a static IP is recommended, but not required to use Unraid.'''I want some MEAT i can chew about how the network settings work with some examples of when/when not to enable certain settings.Thanks everyone.
