MAC address for virtual interface

You can specify the MAC address of your virtual machine’s network interface. This is useful if the software in your virtual machine is licensed for a specific MAC address.

Type of network for this VM

The following networks are supported on the target machines:

• isolated: The network interface is deactivated in the virtual machine.

• NAT: Network Address Translation (NAT) is used; the host machine translates the internal IP address of the virtual machine to its own IP address.

• bridged: The network device specified in Network device used for this VM. Will be ignored for some pre-configured bridge devices is used.

• hostonly: The preconfigured hostonly bridge is used.

• macvtap: The network device specified in Network device used for this VM. Will be ignored for some pre-configured bridge devices is used with the macvtap driver.

Network device used for this VM. Will be ignored for some pre-configured bridge devices

1. Create a network interface by setting the Registry key network.interfaces.ethernet.device<NUMBER>.bridge (System tab > Registry > network > interfaces > ethernet > device<NUMBER>.bridge to own). Example: If the setting has been made for device0, the network interface will be breth0.

2. Enter the resulting name in this field.
