Anyone good with Virtual Machines, need help
 

So I was trying out Virtual Box, pretty neat.

I would like to know how to get a different IP address on it that would be different then my actual machine and if I make another VM, can it also have a different IP?

Thanks

I haven't used Virtual Box in a long time, but with Hyper-V, each of your VMs can be configured with their own virtual ethernet adapter, and whatever protocols and addresses you want for it.

I'm assuming you mean your local/router IP. Something like 192.168.x.x

Go into the VM's setting (not application settings) and click on the network tab.

Check out the dropdown that says Attached To. The two I use are bridge and NAT. If you set it to bridge (I think) it should give the vm a different IP than your real machine. (If it's not bridge it's NAT. Memory fuzzy.)

If you're cloning VM's make sure you change the mac address. There's a random scramble button or else your router might give the same addy to the second VM.

It depends what are you trying to do, ie how do you want your vm machines to be accessed.

The VM already have a different IP address than you physical machine. The question is do you want the VM and future VMs to be accessible only via your computer (that would be NAT) or the VMs be accessible anywhere on your physical machines network (Bridged).
