Is there any way to use a Hyper-V VM on my Windows desktop to provide an address to a physical Fedora system that the host is physically connected to via an Ethernet cable? This is Windows 10 not Server so if I understand it correctly I cannot just set up a DHCP server in Windows itself.
I should note that I am currently missing the correct cables to attach my Fedora server to a monitor so I'm trying to figure out a way to get a DHCP server attached since I know the physical adapter on the Fedora server is configured for DHCP addressing, and I should be able to check logs on the dnsmasq server and see the address request after a reboot. Also I don't have a router or switch available to help, just a single Ethernet cable running between the two physical ports on the Windows and Fedora servers.
