Ubuntu VirtualBox Network Mode host-only

host-Only Adapter mode features:1, virtual machines are not allowed to surf the internet2, the virtual machine can ping through3, the virtual machine can ping the host (note that the virtual machine communicates with the host by the host's name VirtualBox host-network, so IP is the network card IP192.168.56.1, not the IP you're using online right now)4, the host can ping the virtual machine application scenario: In the case of the host is unable to access the Internet (the host can be connected to the Internet can use host-only, can also be bridged), need to build an analog LAN, all the machines can exchange visits Configuration method: Connection mode select Host Only-Only ) adapter interface name Select VirtualBox Host-Only Ethernet Adapter Advanced-Control chip selection pcnet-FAST III Advanced-promiscuous mode rejects advanced-Access Network Yes (virtual machine IP is automatically obtained, you can also configure, the gateway is configured in the host virtual network card address "default is 192.168.56.1", IP is configured for the same segment address as the virtual NIC address) IP style: IP and native VirtualBox Host-ONLY Network network card IP is within the same network segment (default 192.168.56.*) Net Guan Ben VirtualBox Host-only network NIC IP (default 192.168.56.1) Principle: via VirtualBox Host-only the network network card to communicate, the virtual machine with this IP as the gateway, so the simulation of a native and each virtual machine LAN, as the name implies, should be unable to surf the internet (but some people say that you can pass to VirtualBox Host-only network network card to bridge and other operations so that the virtual machine can be connected to the Internet, but it is not as straightforward to use the bridge to the easy, and, oh, I did not try to succeed, some people also said no, because the host does not provide routing services, I am not a good mess after all, you can try it~ ~)
