It depends on what you're trying to do. If you're workstation and VMs are to be on a network, and you want to get to the Internet from your VMs, you need to use Bridged mode.<br />

Yes you can. NAT on VMware works kind of like the NAT in an Internet router (Linksys, D-Link, etc) and lets all of the hosts share the ip address.<br />

Good Luck

Yes...correct; I guess my post did sound like using NAT would negate getting to the Internet from happening.<br />

VMware, a software company founded in 1998,  was one of the first commercially successful companies to offer x86 virtualization. The storage company EMC purchased VMware in 1994. Dell Technologies acquired EMC in 2016. VMware’s parent company is now Dell Technologies.

VMware has many software products that run on desktops, Microsoft Windows, Linux, and macOS, which allows the virtualizing of the x86 architecture.  Its enterprise software hypervisor for servers, VMware vSphere Hypervisor (ESXi), is a bare-metal hypervisor that runs directly on the server hardware and does not require an additional underlying operating system.
