VMware Network Settings

Linux network settings are inextricably linked to VM network settings and must be set to the virtual machine network before setting up the Linux network

VMware offers three network modes of operation:

(1). Bridged-bridge mode

As shown, the virtual machine is occupied with an IP address alone and can be used if multiple IP addresses are available on the network, and the virtual machine can be seen externally.

(2). NAT is the network address translation mode

, the virtual machine and the computer share the same IP address, which is suitable for situations where only one IP address can be provided in the network, and the virtual machine cannot be seen externally.

(3). Host-only is the host mode use this mode if the host where the virtual machine is installed is not connected to any external network.

To do this: open VMware, click VM Options, select Setting, and then select the network adapter option to set any of these three ways.

Note: After the settings are complete, click the Power off option in the Virtual Machine drop-down menu and then click the Reset option, otherwise the settings may not be successful.
