Configuring Promiscuous Mode in VMware Workstation running on Windows 10 serving two Linux guests
Solution 1:
Shut down the VMware host. Locate the VMX file associated with it. Edit the file and locate the Ethernet section. Add a new entry for each Ethernet you want to be in promiscuous mode:
ethernet%d.noPromisc = "FALSE"
(replace %d
with the Ethernet number)
Start the machine and the interface will now operate in promiscuous mode.
