Recently in the study of Linux, and then set up a virtual machine to surf the internet when looking for a lot of tutorials, but the feeling is not written in detail, here to set their own process and encountered problems recorded. Convenient for the people behind the reference. Because VMware virtual machines have three ways to surf the Internet: Bridged, host-only, NAT. I am fixed IP Internet, so the choice of Nat mode, in fact, three kinds of ways almost. The specific differences can be referred to this blog post. Here's an example of a NAT approach.
