After selecting the bridged adapter you can see different interfaces available on the host machine, you have to select the interface ( ethernet or wi-fi ) through which you are getting internet or on which network you want your VM should present. With this the virtual machine is directly available to all the machines that are present in the physical network. In this scenario host network interface is used by the network adapter to persuade the network connection.

Bridged Adapter : This network adapter mode will be helpful for connecting a virtual network adapter to the network to which the host physical network adapter is connected.

You can create,delete and modify NAT Network in virtualbox global settings (click on File menu, select preferences, go to network and select add nat network ). Physical network interface controller related to VirtualBox host is used by the built-in VirtualBox NAT router as the external network interface. Any of the machine from host machine connected physical network or the external networks will be unable to connect to Virtual Machines which are set to the NAT Network. They can easily communicate with one another and can access external networks and the internet.

If you configure multi VM’s with this NAT Network mode this adapter will group all those VM’s and assign different IP’s to them. NAT Network : This mode will be same as NAT mode we use for the router configuration.If you set this adapter for multiple VM’s they are completely isolated from one another and they can not communicate with each other. Unless you set up the port forwarding, you cannot be able to run a server this way. The NAT mode possess the disadvantage such as, similar to the private network which is behind the router, VM (virtual machine) will remain unseeable as well as distant from outside internet. In this setting a virtual machine takes IP addresses from a virtualbox DHCP server. Virtualbox generally has the built-in DHCP server and the NAT engine. NAT : This is the default network mode for virtual machines, users can access external networks easily without configuring any extra settings with this network mode.This is just like turning off wifi and disconnecting ethernet cable. Not attached : Users can make the VM isolated from the network and internet by configuring this network mode.For example one can use a virtual machine by setting adapter1 to NAT mode and adapter2 to Bridged adapter mode and adapter3 to Host-only adapter, he can work in different networks with different interfaces. Virtualbox has different network modes, the interesting thing is we can use different adapters with different network modes.

Mode of Network (Attached to) - The virtualization mode that the virtual machine will operate with respect to physical networking on the host. As shown in the below image Adapter Type and Attached to are the two main things.Īdapter Type - Hardware that will be virtualized In virtualbox network settings there are two major settings that one should know about, to configure based on their requirement. Let’s have a look at virtualbox network settings to establish a network of virtual machines. We can create a virtual environment with the help of VirtualBox software. This blog article will help you in setting up a safe virtual environment for practicing ethical hacking skills. Creating Safe Hacking Environment May 02, 2021
