Greetings,

I am new to this list  and VirtualBox.

I have a setup with these.

--cpu amd64 3 cores, 8Gbytes RAM, single ethernet Interface
--Host OS; Feroda20 (linux-3.11.something), VirtualBox-4.3.8
--Guest (for virtualBox) Fedora19

I am attempting to enable bidge-networking.  The host sees the adapter as p5p1 
-by using the ifconfig command.


When I start the  VM and do ifconfig I see a device called p2p1 ( not p5p1  as 
with the host ) and    with a different mac-address  from the host.   
There is no ipv4 address but an ipv6 multicast address begining with fe80::.  
If I set an ipv4  ipaddress manually (by  ifconfig p2p1  someIPv4adress up );
 I  ( unexpectedly ) cannot ping between   the host   and the VM.    

I do not know if I need to have an ipv4-enabled-dhcp server  on the host 
before  I start the VM  ( or whatever ) to get  bridge-based (ipv4) networking 
organised on fedora20 host and fedora19 guest in VirtualBox.
 

Advice would be appreciated

sincerely
LuxIneg
