I recently used VMware Workstation7 for some experiments on Windows 7, and encountered the need to configure different networks.
Because windows 2003 server is used to using the local back-to-ring Nic, you should also use it on Windows 7.
The results are not as simple as you think.
After a while, I found two solutions. As shown in the following figure.
1. Use the Device Manager
1. Control Panel --- Device Manager. Select a machine name, and click "operation" to add obsolete hardware.
1. Open the Device Manager.
2. Click "Welcome to add hardware wizard" next to it.
2. Open the Add hardware wizard.
3. Select "Install the hardware I manually selected from the list" and click "Next. (This step is critical if you add other hardware)
3 manual Installation
4. Select a network adapter and click Next.
4. Network Adapter
5. select Microsoft --- Microsoft Loopback Adapter and click Next.
5. Add a local loopback address
6. Start installation.
6. Start Installation
7. After the installation is complete, a new Nic appears in the network adapter entry.
7. Complete installation
Ii. Use the command wizard
This is relatively simple, but the first method is simplified.
Open and run, enter hdwwiz, and click OK.
Use command line
The next step is to repeat the steps in the first method and skip them.
Same as the previous method
