Network interface absent for Host-Only

How do I get the Parallels ethernet device ("interface") to show up in System Preferences -> Network when using Host-Only?

I have this setup on a much older system with a much older Parallels Desktop, but I don't recall having to do anything special to make the virtual ethernet device show up. I already tried the "+" but there is no parallels interface.

 

The option to show the interface in System Preferences described here is absent!

There are a zillion devices listed if I type ifconfig in MacOS, but I can't find any documentation as to which is which

 

I think the old interface was called vnic and I don't see that present.

 

According to prlsrvctl it isn't bound to a device. How do I fix this?

~  prlsrvctl net list
Network ID Type Bound To
Shared shared
NAT server:

Host-Only host-only
Wi-Fi (en0) bridged en0
Default bridged FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF

 

Hello!
This logic is disabled for Mac computers with macOS 11+ since Parallels Desktop 16.1.0 due to modern macOS limitations (kernel extension-less network).
The KB article mentioned above has been hidden. Thank you for making us pay attention to it!

 

I managed to create a Network Service for the bridge101 interface by editing /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/preferences.plist
Unsure why Parallels can't do this.
