I can't follow. localnet (127.0.0.0/8) is always local to a particular operating system, and VirtualBox can't change that. It was never able to extend 127.0.0.0/8 to reach the host or any other VM. Please explain what your exact setup was, maybe it gives clues how your setup was actually working, because I don't believe that the model in your head and reality really matched. > I would like to keep my IP address intact and dont want to change. > Please provide the below clarifications > 1.

It's purely up to the OS.
