+.. note:: If you happen to run this in a virtual environment like by EVE-NG
+ you need to ensure your VyOS NIC is set to use the e1000 driver. Using the
+ default ``virtio-net-pci`` or the ``vmxnet3`` driver will not work. ICMP
+ messages will not be properly processed. They are visible on the virtual wire
+ but will not make it fully up the networking stack.
+
+ You can check your NIC driver by issuing :opcmd:`show interfaces ethernet
+ eth0 physical | grep -i driver`
