Hello Satish,

I am unable to ssh/ping the CentOS 8.2 machine after following the
steps mentioned in your document.
I am trying this POC using Oracle Virtualbox.
The vm got 192.168.0.x IP from DHCP in my wifi router.

Till bootstrap, the SSH session was alive.
But after a while I lost access to the vm.
Now If I do ip a, I don't see the 192.168.0.x IP to any interface.

What can be the issue?

Regards,
Amey.
