I had created on e box inside vagrant. In the Vagrantfile, I had given the network as
Create a private network, which allows host-only access to the machine
By default, vagrant deletes the default (working) route on additional bridged networks inside the VMs. My problem which was specific for DHCP could only be solved by configuring the bridged network as follows:
config.vm.network :public_network, :bridge => 'em1',:use_dhcp_assigned_default_route => true
