Description
## Summary
All networking and DNS functionality stops working on the Lima VM after a random number of bytes are transferred. Networking gets restored approx. ten seconds later.
Reboots fix this problem temporarily.
## Host configuration
2021 Apple MacBook Pro M1 Pro, 16GB RAM
## VM configuration
See [here](https://gist.github.com/carlosonunez/c2dd48ae33e7ac38ba066cffba790c28).
## How To Reproduce
- Start the VM: `limactl start`. The configuration above also installs Docker with `dockerd`.
- Set `DOCKER_HOST` to the IP of the VM on the host
- Perform random network traffic through a Docker container until you receive an i/o timeout
## Troubleshooting Performed
- Changed the version of Alpine used on the guest to 3.14.10
- `sudo ifdown eth0 && sudo ifup eth0` on the host
