The host has internet connectivity from both Wi-Fi cards. I do not have internet connectivity in VMs. Wireless Lan Adapter WiFi 2:D Link USB Wifi Adapter Windows IP Configuration Wireless LAN adapter Wi-Fi 2:Ĭonnection-specific DNS Suffix. Windows IP Configuration in Virtual Machine Ethernet adapter Ethernet0:Ĭonnection-specific DNS Suffix. The configuration of VMware virtual network editor is followingĪnd network setting for virtual machine network adapter is following This will solve the problem by flushing (deleting) cache DNS records from PC.I have VMware workstation environment on my laptop. If your configuration is right but it’s not pinging then type “ipconfig /flushdns” in the command prompt of PC (Physical machine). You can also ping your virtual machine’s IP address from you machine, outside of VMware workstation application.
You can now Ping your default gateway ( R1), and PC (Physical machine’s IP address) from Windows XP machine and vice-versa. Your Windows machine is now connected to physical network.
This works if the machine is configured to get IP address automatically from DHCP in Local area connection properties. Note: – If you choose replicate physical network connection state, IP address of virtual machine is automatically changed if you moved between networks which is assigned by DHCP server of the particular network. Here, choose the option, Bridged: Connected directly to the physical network. Now open the virtual machine settings of Windows XP machine in VMware Workstation. When testing servers static IP address will be mostly used. At first configure static IP address in Windows XP machine as 192.168.50.102 and gateway of router’s IP as 192.168.50.100. Windows XP is installed as virtual machine in VMware Workstation 9. I will show you the steps by connecting Windows XP machine to external network. Connect VMware Workstation Virtual Machine to Physical Network Assuming you know how to install virtual machine, let’s get going. The network will assume that the virtual machine is separate physical host. You can run various virtual servers (like FTP, Mail Server, DHCP, etc.) and connect to the network. This allows to create real world testing scenario. You can connect VMware Workstation virtual machine to physical network. There are a lot of network options within VMware workstation for configuring networks for virtual machines. You can easily create virtual machines inside the VMware workstation and run various operating systems.
There are many features that makes this software a great learning and testing tool. As of 2013 VMware workstation 9 is the latest version that is mostly used by IT professionals and newbies for learning and test purposes. VMware Workstation is a software that can be install on existing physical machine (generally PC) and can be used to emulate various operating systems.
