It happened again just now.
But I have a workaround. Use:
```
ssh -b 192.168.1.1 mirror@petermirror.local
```
The .1.1 address is the local gateway. bridge101 identifies as 192.168.135.1
When the ssh failure happens when not using -b, adding the -b parameter allows ssh to complete. I can let VMware Fusion be running in the background.
