This sounds familiar to me, please have a look at the following two 
threads:

https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-jail/2019-February/003684.html
https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-net/2017-December/049470.html

If your hosts run on cloud infrastructure odds are that the mentioned 
settings will work in your case.

Michael
