No internet access in any VMs - only APIPA addresses

I have Parallels 15 installed in Catalina. Nothing has changed in the normal mac environment. Recently, I have lost all network/internet connectivity and the virtual machines, Windows 10 and Mac Mojave only receive APIPA (169.x.x.x) addresses. Something changed in parallels 15. Suggestions??

 

Hello, are you using the latest Parallels Desktop 15 update? (15.1.4)
When does the issue reoccur, after update or without any visible reason?

 

Yes, I am running the latest version of parallels. The issue started shortly after installing the latest version of parallels. I identified the issue as the dhcp server failing to start...network sharing mode. If I bridge my network adapters in my virtual machines all is good. This latest version broke some part of network sharing mode...the default mode. Suggestions?

 

Parallels Tools reinstallation didn't help you, right?

 

That is correct. I found a support note with the suggestion to reinstall Parallels Tools but it didn't help at all. Changing to bridged mode brought back network connectivity in all vms.
