When using a *BSD (FreeBSD, OpenBSD, etc) operating system on some of our locations, you must add the following in the /etc/rc.conf to have networking if your installation doesn't by default. This is required in certain locations, due to special networking that requires a gateway outside of the assigned network range.

/etc/rc.conf
ifconfig_ed0='Your_VM_IPv4_Addr netmask 255.255.255.255'
defaultrouter=YourVMGatewayIP
static_routes="ovh"

route_ovh="-net YourVMGatewayIP -iface ed0"

In the above, YourVMGatewayIP must be the assigned gateway address of your server IP, and ed0 must be the interface name of your BSD operating system public network interface.
