How to Configure VM's with static IP on Hyper-v host windows server 2008 R2?
I have Hyper-V role installed on Windows server 2008 R2 installed on a machine with 32GB RAM and IBM System X3400 M3 Server. I created the Guest VM using the VHD that is already installed with Windows server 2003 SP2 using the Hyper-V manager tool.
The problem:
I cannot ping IP address of the host machine from VM, where host is connected to network where i can surf and do remote desktop very easily. Even the host machine cannot ping the VM.
From the VM i cannot surf , do not see any system in the network.
Cannot do Remote desktop with the VM guest hosted on Hyper-v.
==========================================================================
Structure of my Network(Pls Note all the systems in our network are allocated Static IP including the HOST and the Guest VM):-
- HOST Machine
================================
IPv4 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.44(Preferred)
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.1
- GUEST Machine
=================================
IPv4 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.45
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.1
Please help me with examples that includes creating VLAN with Static IPs.
Solution 1:
It sounds like your virtual switch may be misconfigured. Check out this article and verify your settings. If your host can't ping the VM, then you have some kind of switching/routing problem.
Solution 2:
How is virtual networking configured on the Hyper-V server? Make sure you have a virtual network defined as "external" and connected to the server's network card, and make also sure you connect the VM's virtual network card to this virtual network.
