VMWare Workstation 10 – first try

If you want to use “bridged” connections, where the VMs appear as any other machine directly attached to your router (and dhcp server), you may need to go Edit > Virtual Network Editor > select the “Bridged” Type row, then below in the “Bridged to:” drop-down, select your NIC that is your main internet connection. I’ve tried loads of different virtualization and VPN solutions, so I have about 12 different network connections.


Once I did the above, my VMs set to “bridged” NICs got an IP from my dhcp server just fine.
