Without a network diagram, it is **difficult** to understand the topology of your network. AFIAK, your "public" IP can be assigned only to the WAN port of your router/modem to the ISP (in a typical setup). > Now, I have assigned that IP in my guest > CentOS VM NAT (eth0), but I can't connect to internet now. See above remark. Assuming that your VM is on "internal" network you should assign it a "static" IP from the "private" IP number pool for your LAN. You have to assign port forwarding rules in your router/modem to route packets to the "private" IP number of your VM. > I think, I need > to configure this in router, but I am afraid that, I actually don't know how > to do that. Can you please bring me any link or any hint regarding that? IMO, one should have an understanding networking fundamentals under one's belt. The Linux Network Administration Guide [1] is a good place to start reading up about networking in Linux (as well as in general) [1] <http://www.tldp.org/LDP/nag2/nag2.pdf> -- Arun Khan A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
