The end result is that from the guest OS I am able to ping myself, the gateway, the internet (i.e.

Disabled entire firewall on router no change.

Ran ifconfig immediately and saw change, but after reboot/restart it went back to 10.0.0.6 no change

Tried to use command ifconfig eth10 10.0.0.25 netmask 255.255.255.0 to force IP change.

Instead of Auto-Bridging, selected Wireless NIC as preferred adapter no change

Gained access to Virtual Network Editor.

Selected Replicate physical network connection state in VM Network Adapter settings no change.

Generated new MAC Address and changed MAC address (in VM Network Adapter settings, in ifcgf-eth10 settings, and in persistent rules) no change.

Here are some notes that I've been keeping about different things I've tried: Instead of deleting each new rule, I've just been commenting out the older rules as I go. Or in other words, a new rule is created every time I change my Bridge Adapter (you can tell by the different MAC addresses in each rule, which is the result of me jumping from a wireless to a wired connection). Here it looks as if the rules set updates with every new attempt I make at resetting my configuration.

I also notice something odd in my udev rules list (command: vi /etc/udev/rules.d/les).

Under ifconfig, the inet addr, HWaddr, and Mask addresses are identical to the IPv4, Subnet Mask, and Physical Address of my host PC.

This is a snippet of my eth10 settings.ĭEVICE='eth10' NM_CONTROLLED='yes' ONBOOT='yes' BOOTPROTO='dhcp' HWADDR='78:45:C4:C0:52:42'.

In Virtual Machine Settings > Network Adapter > Advanced., I updated the MAC Address to that of my host PC.I've also tried doing this with the Virtual Network Editor tool that is so seemingly hard to find access to. Selected my wireless NIC in Configure Adapters. In the Virtual Machine Settings > Network Adapter, I selected Bridged network connection.

Windows Firewall is turned off, as well as my AntiVirus (I use StopZilla and from what I've found, there is no firewall to disengage).

Here are some additional details of my setup and what I've tried (*unfortunately my account is too new that I'm not able to upload pictures, so I'll try my best to explain): I'm particularly trying to bridge to my wireless network (although I've tested wired network and I still have the same problem). The trouble that I'm having is that with DHCP the IP address that gets assigned to my guest OS (Ubuntu Linux) is identical to the IPv4 address of my host PC (running Windows 8). Sample Custom Networking Configuration.For work I'm trying to connect a VM launched in VMware Player 5.0.2 to my host computer via bridged network connection. You can use the virtual network editor to configure multiple network cards in the host system and create multiple virtual networks. The virtual networks can be connected to one or more external networks, or they can run entirely on the host system.

With the Workstation Pro virtual networking components, you can create sophisticated virtual networks.

#Vmware bridged network mac address install

When you install Workstation Pro on a Windows or Linux host system, a host-only network (VMnet1) is set up for you. Host-only networking provides a network connection between the virtual machine and the host system by using a virtual network adapter that is visible on the host operating system. Host-only networking creates a network that is completely contained within the host computer. See Configuring Network Address Translation. When you use the New Virtual Machine wizard to create a new virtual machine and select the typical configuration type, the wizard configures the virtual machine to use the default NAT network. When you install Workstation Pro on a Windows or Linux host system, a NAT network (VMnet8) is set up for you. The virtual machine and the host system share a single network identity that is not visible on the external network. In the default configuration, a virtual machine gets an address on this private network from the virtual DHCP server. Instead, a separate private network is set up on the host system.

With NAT, a virtual machine does not have its own IP address on the external network. When you install Workstation Pro on a Windows or Linux host system, a bridged network (VMnet0) is set up for you. If the host system is on a network, bridged networking is often the easiest way to give the virtual machine access to that network. Bridged Networkingīridged networking connects a virtual machine to a network by using the network adapter on the host system. You can also use the virtual networking components to create sophisticated custom virtual networks. You can configure bridged networking, NAT, and host-only networking for virtual machines.
