When networking is hung, stopping ssh.service will also resolve the hang, but reloading or restating ssh.service will hang as well. There are no problems restarting or reloading ssh.service in other circumstances.

On the official vagrant image, I get this problem independently of whether the command is issued through and ssh session. I've gotten the same behavior on the official xenial AMIs.
