Virtualbox gateway connection












0














Is it possible to make a "gateway" computer, which will be connected to Internet and other three guests machines, which would be able to reach web through first PC? I don't want these machines to be in bridged connection - I want this gw machine to act as some kind of router.



EDIT: I am running Ubuntu Server on every vm.

          Yes, it is, configure two Ethernet for the "gateway" one as Bridged Adapter with the host and another as Internal Network, after this the other VMs with a only nick attached to the Internal Network.



          You can use pfsense for the gateway VMs if you do not want manage iptables via command line or any router/firewall distribution.

          • Alright, but I still have to configure second adapter manualy, right? I have edited /etc/network/interfaces file with following config: imgur.com/a/FteMsSW and it seems to be okay under ifconfig imgur.com/a/nUrG0dO but now I am not able to reach external sites (seems like machine tries to ping address from secondary adapter) imgur.com/a/dAU36Ld
