Thanks for the quick reply. I am wondering 1. if the statically assigning the IP address, can this IP address be an internal IP address (such as any 192.168.1.100) or a external IP address that should be requested from ISP? 2. if DHCP the ip address, does Open vSwitch will be performed as the DHCP server? Or the same DHCP server used by the HOST machine is used within the VM.
Thanks a lot. Hugo On Fri, Apr 1, 2011 at 3:07 PM, Ben Pfaff <[email protected]> wrote: > On Fri, Apr 01, 2011 at 03:01:19PM -0500, Hugo wrote: > > And I start up the VM in VitualBox.
