Hyper-V Virtual Windows Server 2008 - cannot see network
I have a Windows Server 2008 R2 and using Hyper-V I created a Virtual Machine (again Windows Server 2008 R2). I can connect to it from the Hyper-V but it cannot see the network or the Internet or pinged it.
I have given it a static IP in the router and put that into the TCPIP settings V4. I have checked the MAC address is the same.
In the system tray it says “Unidentified Network – No Internet Access”
I have turned off the Windows Fire wall in case that is interfering.
I have set the Workgroup to be the same as the other machines.
I have been into Hyper-V to the Virtual Machine Manager and created a New Virtual Network, connection type External using HP “NC326i PCIe DualPort Gigabit server adapter”. I have enabled virtual LAN identification. There is also a second adapter “HP NC326i PCIe DualPort Gigabit server adapter #2” but using this I loose the connection to the server on the Remote desktop, the connection is not enabled on the host server
How do I get the virtual machine to see the network?
Your help appreciated

Hi xmlmagician
The driver is up to date
There is no anti-virus on the virtual machine.
The referenced document was very interesting and I have attempted to install RRAS how ever I cant Configure it at the end of the article only the newly created Bridge is visavble?
See attached
Thanks

Hi Leew
Screen shot attached
I enabled VLANs as an experiment, it seemed a resonable thing to try (though I dont understand it much)

Hi
Unchecking Virtual LAN identification makes no difference

The issue seems to have been twi fold
1. I needed to dset up the Virtual Network Before creating the machine
2. I needed a bridge connector between the the virtual network and the real one

(Why did you enable VLANs?) Do you use them on your network?
