I have been having trouble for some time now with Fusion 12 and Chef kitchen and vagrant. When I attempt to destroy a vagrant box using "kitchen destroy", vagrant is unable to communicate with Fusion and it will time-out.  I have to reboot for it to work again. I upgraded to Fusion 12.2 in the hopes this would be fixed.  Unfortunately, I am now unable to stand up a kitchen instance using "kitchen create".  It hangs without a time-out.  I have deleted the .kitchen directory without a change in behavior. -----> Creating <default-centos-7>...        Bringing machine 'default' up with 'vmware_desktop' provider...        ==> default: Checking if box 'bento/centos-7' version '202109.07.0' is up to date...        ==> default: Verifying vmnet devices are healthy...        ==> default: Preparing network adapters...        ==> default: Starting the VMware VM...        ==> default: Waiting for the VM to receive an address...

I've recently started experiencing this issue.  I thought it correlated with me upgrading to the Pro version, but I haven't stumbled on the part in the UI to configure DHCP reservation.  DHCP reservation is a very important feature in DHCP.  You can auto configure the IP stack, like DNS servers, while ensuring the device gets the IP address needed. I'd find it hard to believe this was intentional and not a bug.  It would blow my mind really. Every restart, I copy/paste and then do the stop/start.  Not ideal.  I am surprised they don't have a UI for reservations; at least in the pro.
