Cannot add a Host only adapter

Open fy15maag opened this issue 6 years ago • 2 comments

Greetings,

I've installed Mininet-VM. I was advised to add an additional host-only network adapter so I can use log in to the VM image. But this is what I get when I try to add the host-only adapter

Any help would be appreciated,

I ran into this same issue. Before you can add a host-only network adapter to the VM, you must first create one if you haven't already. By default, it seems virtual box does not provide any.

To create one, click on File > Host Network Manager. From this window, you can then create one and configure it. Once created, you can go back to the VM network settings and finally add the created network adapter to the VM.

Ok, got it. Thank you
