Overview
Network Topology
VMware Fusion offers by default two choices of subnets:
- vmnet8 - a 172.16.153.0/24 host-based network with a DHCP server and external NAT access.
- vmnet1 - a 192.168.10.1/24 internal host-based network with a DHCP server, without external NAT access.
Both subnets allow guests to be directly routed into from the host processes.
In both subnets, guests are dynamically configured with DHCP by default, but they can also be statically configured.
For vmnet8 the static configuration range is 172.16.153.3 - 172.16.153.127 (172.16.153.1 is the host interface, and 172.16.153.2 is the NAT server). The guests have external access via a NAT server, so they can access the host's gateway.
For vmnet1 the static configuration range is 192.168.10.2 - 192.168.10.127 (192.168.10.1 is the host interface).
