Hi What's the equivalent on virtualbox to joining 2 physical network cards with a crossover cable?
I want to emulate 2 machines: 192.168.1.80 and 192.168.1.81 are attached respectively to 2 nics and these go to the switch. I can do that with a bridged interface on vbox.
192.168.0.10 and 192.168.0.11 are the two crossover cards.
You might want to set the "crossover" network cards to type "Internal Network" or "Host-only Adapter" in the vm configuration. The first allows to mimic a real cross over connection as long as the cards are the only ones to use the same "Internal Network" (you can set up several by naming them differently) The second one allows the host machine to connect to the clients as well. /Andreas -- Cahn's Axiom: When all else fails, read the instructions. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
