7. Direct Next

8. Virtual memory can be set according to their own computer, minimum not less than 1024MB, recommended 2048MB. The next

9.Vmware virtual machine provides users with three network modes, which are bridge mode, network address translation mode (NAT), and host-only mode.
Bridging mode: the equivalent of building a bridge between the physical host and the virtual machine NIC, which allows access to the extranet through the network card of the physical host.
Network Address translation mode (NAT): Let the VMware Virtual Machine Network Service play the role of the router, so that the host through the virtual machine software simulation can access the external network through the physical host, NAT virtual machine network card in the real machine the corresponding physical network card is VMnet8.
Host-only mode: Only the host in the virtual machine communicates with the physical host and cannot access the external network, the physical network card corresponding to the host-mode emulation NIC in the real machine is VMnet1.
Experiment here we have selected host-only mode, next
