Description
https://gitlab.alpinelinux.org/alpine/aports/-/issues/11669
When the two mac-addresses of the dhcp server and the emulated-host interface in NatNetwork are different, the arp cache may end up with the mac address of host entered as that from the dhcp. WHen that happens further communcation with host (CIFS/ssh) fails.
The eesolution was to set the dhcp server from the default 10.1.x.2 to 10.1.x.5. Then mac addresses don't clash
There should be a vboxmanage setting to set the mac address of the host-ip and of the dhcp-server-ip
