<div>
what IP Address are you trying to configure, VMware Workstation and Virtualbox are very similar ?<br />
<br />
default network route, is set in the OS TCP/IP parameters for the physical network interface in the host, nothing to do with the Hypervisor ?<br />
<br />
If you are referring to VMware's Virtual Network Editor, you will need to use VBoxManage command line tool<br />
<br />
to create a NAT Network<br />
<br />
e.g. VBoxManage natnetwork add --netname natnet1 --network &quot;192.168.15.0/24&quot; --enable
</div>


<div>
My &nbsp;physical machine default IP addresses is 192.168.0.1 and I have created the VM in virtual box and loaded Solaris, &nbsp;now I have created the default route to 192.168.0.1 in solaris, but I can't ping.
</div>


<div>
Well that depends on which networking mode, Virtualbox VM is using Bridged, Host only or NAT.<br />
<br />
what IP Address does the VM have, and what networking mode are you using ?
</div>


<div>
I am using NAT as networking mode to access outside as well.
</div>


<div>
How does VM knows about hypervisor connectivity? &nbsp;that piece is missing.
</div>


<div>
Now, &nbsp;I can ping each VMs, but I can't &nbsp;ping host or host can't ping VMs. &nbsp;I have used NAT network.<br />
<br />
Am I missign some thing here?
</div>


<div>
okay, what are the IP Addresses, of the host and VMs.<br />
<br />
The VMs do not really know about the Hypervisor connectivity, it's the NAT network and virtual network which is created by virtualbox.
</div>


<div>
host IP address is &nbsp;192.168.0.16<br />
<br />
and VM IPs are &nbsp;192.168.0.5 and &nbsp;192.168.0.4
</div>


<div>
no problems, thank you for your kind words.

Hello,

I  just installed  virtual  box and trying to configure IP address.  Before I configure,  i clicked on I got there are no active network operations.
I am familiar with vmware workstation, but here I am not getting anything to setup the default network route.

Virtualization is the act of creating a virtual (rather than actual) version of something, including (but not limited to) a virtual computer hardware platform, operating system (OS), storage device, or computer network resources. Virtualization is usually the creation of a system that executes separate from the underlying hardware resources, or the creation of an entire desktop for systems located elsewhere, similar to thin clients.

Virtualization

Networking is the process of connecting computing devices, peripherals and terminals together through a system that uses wiring, cabling or radio waves that enable their users to communicate, share information and interact over distances. Often associated are issues regarding operating systems, hardware and equipment, cloud and virtual networking, protocols, architecture, storage and management.

Networking

Linux is a UNIX-like open source operating system with hundreds of distinct distributions, including: Fedora, openSUSE, Ubuntu, Debian, Slackware, Gentoo, CentOS, and Arch Linux. Linux is generally associated with web and database servers, but has become popular in many niche industries and applications.
