configuration network on VMWare server 2

Hello

I installed Vmware server 2 on my server (WIN2k3 with nic 2s because my server have a role of routing). A NIC is set up for INTERNET and other NIC is set to INTRNET.

the configuration of my INTRANET is on class C IP:192.168.99.XX, SM: 255.255.255.0. I create a virtual Instalation with UBUNTU 8.10 Server... I installed UBUNTU with no problem and without error, but without internet access because I don't know what ip and network configurations I should do on virtual NIC (Vmnet1 and Vmnet8) and which configurations should I do ifconfig on UBUNTU (IP, SM, gateway, DNS)

can someone help me?

Thank you.

Depends on...

I'll explain what these networks and you can find what you need:

1 bridged (VMnet0)

If the virtual NIC (vNIC) is fulfilled, the guest takes part like any other host on the network. It needs its own IP address corresponding to the IP network to which it is filled.

2 host-only (VMnet1)

It is a network isolated between the host and the guests. No outside communication.

3 NAT (VMnet8)

When you use this type the host acts as a proxy routing with address masquerading. This means that all packets send by the client appears to come from the host to the outside world. You can hide your comments like that.

What physical adapters is used to fill can be configured. The default value is one automatically chosen NIC jumpered to VMnet0. You can create a custom network (say VMnet2) and he a teddy bear additional bridge.

Networks VMnet1 and VMnet8 can be served by the DHCP of VMware Server, so if you use this type of vNIC and you configure the IP address in the guest to use DHCP, you're fine.

Don't forget to use a firewall at least on the vNIC which can face outside if you use bridged or NAT to connect to the Internet!

  • Networking in VMware Server 2

    I just installed a new server VMware Server 2. I have 3 NICs on the host. I used the vmnetcfg tool to configure the network cards with the "host virtual network mapping" to map to the physical network adapters. However, when I try to change the NETWORK adapter in the virtual machine settings, I get only bridged, host only or NAT. And the web interface even does not resemble any of the documents that I read online about how to configure this. Can anyone help setting this up?

    Thank you

    Scott

    Not looked at your attachments (large) but one, without papers, "feature" is that you must restart the service Agent Host VMware after changing the networking via vmnetcfg until they appear in the web console or client VI.

    Hey guys,.

    I've been busy, actually not really busy, spent my whole day with this problem... I could just find the same solution I am looking for all the documents...

    I have a VMware Server 2.0 installed on CentOS 5.2, and I have 5 dedicated IP address or static with this server...

    Now, I created a VM with CentOS 4.7 for testing purposes, but I don't know how assing one of the IP address for this virtual machine.

    Okay, that means, is not in your server room.

    Your computer has several available ethernet network interfaces: eth0, eth0: 0,

    eth0: 1, eth0:2, eth0:3. Which do you want to bridge vmnet0?

    Your server has only one physical ethernet interface. But there are multiple ip addresses configured on it. If you want to know, how it works and how it is configured, you can read this page.

    You need to reconfigure your network VMware Server 2 to fill the other or several networks. VMware Server documentation is explained on p. 222 and following. In fact, for linux, it is page 229 and includes 'ifconfig' to know what special device (eth0: 0...) what IP address, then run ' vmware - config.pl ' is used to assign the new configuration. But please read the documentation for more details.

  • How to configure server DHCP of VMware Server 2 to play nice on my network?

    I have 8 physical systems running on a network.

    A system running VMware Server 2 on it.

    Server DHCP of Server2 provides virtual machines with IPs on the 192.168.106 network and they all work fine, all virtual machines find each other and physical systems too.

    My wireless router is a DHCP server which provides boxes of physical IPs on the 192.168.2 network and works very well between physical systems.

    The problem occurs when a physical systems trying to access a virtual machine.

    All virtual machines are set to run in NAT mode, I tried no succcess one either bridged mode.

    The VMs system static IPs on the 192.168.2 network also fails miserably as all of my attempts to set masks subnet on all systems.

    I think I need to 'fix' the VMware Server 2 DHCP server, but have not yet find data on this topic, and I'm not sure that if I do this will help.

    Any solution here would be FANTASTIC.

    Past esxi was not really going to do this I feel even if you have not installed - it is really intended for high-end package rather than SATA based servers while sort will work on some.

    Their reason to exceed the NAT is filled? If you want to that virtual machines at all simply appear as regular machines on your existing subnet then packed is the easiest way to go because virtual machines must be able to obtain their IP addresses of your router, as well as physical boxes. DHCP server 2.0 is just for the NAT and host only networking that it manages-for machines virtual NAT, you must configure the port forwarding on the host server 2.0 for all the traffic you want to enter in the virtual machines from the outside since by default, all incoming ports are blocked, appropriately with NAT, see Chapter 11 of the user guide - http://www.vmware.com/pdf/vmserver2.pdf

    So, if you want to go to bridge, we need to understand why this does not work as it should be "out of the box" as long as there is no any firewall host or other security software, for example the clients VPN, which will block traffic. What is the host operating system? Please post ipconfig/all or ifconfig - an output of the host and the guest. How have you configured in bridge network - using the default settings? Virtual machines get an IP address from your router?

  • VMWare Server on Windows domain recovery network

    Hello

    I will build a network of recovery of Windows domain I want to place the Windows Server version 2.0 of VMWare Server freeware. We already have and VI3.5 cluster, but I don't really want to create a new one in our network of recovery offline just welcomed a couple of servers. I want to create two servers on that host virtual machines.

    My question is, can I create a server image to import into this version using the VMWare converter to option ""Stand-alone virtual VMWare machine? '" It seems that it is possible, since VMWare Server 1.x is a listed option. I'm looking for a validation test before going forward with this plan.

    Thank you

    A good starting point is the chapter networking in the user guide - http://www.vmware.com/pdf/vmserver2.pdf

    By default, vmnet0 is filled and vmnet8 is NAT, although it does not matter really as long as you choose the eCard directly in your virtual machine.

    Looks like you need to disable the automatic bypass in vmnetcfg.exe and then activate the bypass on the host of the NETWORK card that you really want the virtual machines to use. This may be vmnet0 or you can choose one of the unused vmnet adapters *-just make sure that you select the right one when you configure the VM vmnetcfg.exe. Make sure runs in as long as administrator and you also need to restart the VMware services before the VI client or web interface, will pick up the changes.

    Not sure the upgrade option - possibly be willing to upgrade the version of the virtual hardware, you need only to do if you want to enjoy things like USB 2.0 support. I leave mine to version 4 so that the VI/vSphere client can change the settings for the virtual machine. It could also refer to upgrading VMware tools although I doubt it's necessary.

  • Configure a virtual firewall VMWare Server 2

    Hello

    I'm configuring a virtual machine which will act as a firewall ISA Server. The machine is now running on a physical machine. I used VMWare Converter to change it to a virtual machine. However, I am unable to set up the configuration of the network. For after this post: http://www.cs.drexel.edu/~vp/VirtualFirewall/ I should create a network invited only to the internal network and a connection open in the external network.

    This last little is where the problems come. The external network has a mask of 255.255.255.252 network, so I have only 2 IP address in the network: 1 the host machine and the other is for the default gateway. Implementation of bridged networks is therefore not an option. I tried setting up guest network only on the external interface, but then VMWare server is unbootable. (The DCHP server on/dev/vmet1 does not start).

    Operation of the machine I have RHEL 5 host OS. It has 2 physical NIC, 1 connected to the internal network and externally 1. Is there perhaps a way to Server2 VM I can ask the network adapter connected to the external network exclusively for this virtual machine? Or is there maybe a better way to implement?

    Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    You can use fill or NAT if you need to communicate outside the host. You cannot configure 'host-only' on the physical map, because this isn't 'host-only' more.

    If you cannot use open due to lack of IP addresses (as a virtual bridged interface needs its own IP address) you can use NAT. In this case, the host acts as a NAT proxy to the client (your firewall). To the outside world only the IP address of the will be visible. The customer will receive an IP address from the VMnet8 virtual network (if you are using DHCP, you can use a static IP address in the range of addresses network IP VMnet8).

    But you must forward packets to the port prompt if there is no communication initiated from the outside at the prompt.

  • VMware Server VM - network adapter disconnected - help needed please

    Hello world!

    I already install VMware Server running two virtual machines in test environments. Virtual computers running Windows XP Professional (Service Pack 2). VMware server itself is sitting on Windows Server 2003, which I have remote access.

    The plan is to let the virtual machines running continuously and access them directly on a Remote Desktop Protocol. It was working fine until we had an incident with Windows Server 2003.

    The incident was that we decided to upgrade to Service Pack 2 on the server. When we restarted the server, we found that the IP Configs were changed. NIC 1 didn't have any parameters calibrated but NIC 2 made. We removed NIC 1 and then reconfigured to run 2 NIC NIC 1.

    The server now works fine and we can remotely access, but the virtual machines have lost their configurations. When I run it says that the network adapter is disconnected. I kept them and adding new hardware, selected network adapter and connect at startup. But whenever I run a virtual machine, it says that the network adapter is disconnected.

    Anyone know how to fix this? any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

  • Installation of VMWare Server 2 breaks network connections

    I just install VMWare Server 2 on a Dell 1950 with Windows 2008 Enterprise Server.  He must have done something to the network settings because I can not remote on the server more.  Anyone know what happened?  I have Microsoft Virtual Server software installed on the same server.  Which would cause a conflict?

    Any advice would be great.

    Thank you

    I had MS Virtual Server installed VMware Server 2, but it was on a Windows 2003 host.

    Server installation adds two virtual networks.  (VMnet1 and VMnet8.)  Try disabling the and see if you can remote into.  Otherwise, if you uninstall the server, are you able to distance in the host again?  (These are the solutions, just in troubleshooting).

  • Network card works no-Windows home server on VMWare server 2.0.1

    I installed Windows Home Server on VMWare server 2.0.1 and the card in Device Manager Ethernet OS says "this device cannot start (code 10)". Device Manager shows AMD PCNET Family PCI Ethernet Adapter and the current drivers are also installed. I installed the Home Server by selecting other 32 bit OS in the virtual machine. Also, I removed the network card and reinstalled the adapter in the control panel of VMWare. It shows connected and I fixed it to connect at power on, it is also a bridge connection. I don't know what to do or check. I thought to reinstall the operating system by choosing server 2003 32-bit for Windows Home server is based on this. It's probably something simple. Anyone have any ideas?

  • How can ping virtual machine on VMware Server external network?

    In the Vmware infrastructure products you can can be crazy from the outside through their individual networks connections, which is a good thing... lol

    How this is possible on VMware Server when guests use the VMnet8 network that uses NAT?

    In many scenarios, the use of bypass is prohibited due to the policy defined at the level of the external switch, but it is still necessary for the basic functionality of ping. Otherwise, how they would be able to know if a virtual machine is actually up to who answered the questionnaire on the network without entering actual connections to such hosts?

    You're right - that's how NAT works (whether via a service such as the VMware NAT service software or a hardware router/firewall NAT).  All computers behind the NAT server are hidden from the outside world (unless you map specific ports to the specific IP address of a computer)... they are so NOT to pings from the outside.
