* done
No need to install some hyperv plugin after the installation,
its on by default
its included automaticly.
**In case of disconnect of LAN side cable/switch, the hyperv host also loses connection**<br>
Even if one might think it should work - WAN side is there, firewall is running,
but it's the way hyperv external vswitches work. The physical NIC must be alive.<br>
If the switch would be `internal` then it would be entirely virtual and independent
of physical NIC state, but in host windows network connections,
one cant bridge internal and external, switches nor NICs.<br>
One way to solve this mild annoyance is to have external WAN, internal LAN1,
and external LAN2. LAN1 and LAN2 would be
[bridged in opnsense](https://docs.opnsense.org/manual/how-tos/lan_bridge.html).
But seems this is rather cpu intensive and not recommended.<br>
So I guess its living with this.
