I have only the client connected to the network?

In many networks corporate single IP is distributed DHCP server on each physical ethernet connection.

I could run NAT, but on some networks only my WinXP guest is allowed on the network, which means I want Bridged networking but not my host Mac connected to the network.

In VMware Workstation on Windows, I can do this by removing the Protocol TCP/IP from the network connection on the host just by running Bridged networking.

If I remove IPv4 settings TCP/IP ethernet adapter MacOSX becomes invalid and is not found by merger.

I'd appreciate any help or ideas on how to achieve the goal of only to leave the comments on the network using Mac OS x and VMware Fusion.

Thank you

If you want to have only the guest access to the physical network Mac OS is on without the Mac itself being able to access it, then you can proceed as follows...

On the Mac...

Apple menu > System Preferences > network

Select the target adapter and configure it to "Use of DHCP with a manual address" and assign IP address 169.254.x.x.

This will allow the guest operating system to be configured using bridged network and receive an IP address from the DHCP server on the LAN, or you can configure it manually too.

The guest will be able to connect to the host however will not.
