Repro Steps

I set the network type to mirrored in the .wslconfig file.
networkingMode=mirrored
and then restart WSL

Expected Behavior

Everything's getting good. It should work.

Actual Behavior

When I start wsl it reports an error:

无法初始化Mirrored网络。若要切换回NAT网络请从 C:\Users\ecomter\.wslconfig中删除“experimental.networkingMode”
