Introduction
When creating virtual machines in Windows using Hyper V, and you are expecting to access this server via the network, you will need to create a virtual switch. If not done properly many issues can arise, such as the issue we encountered for months regarding the networking mistake we made with our web server, more on that below.
Creating a Virtual Switch
The following article goes over the process of creating a virtual switch in Hyper V in Windows 2016 Server.
Through trial and error we have discovered that it is best to give these VM's a static IP address. Please check the Static/Reserved IP address page in this Wiki to ensure you do not create a conflict.
