How to Configure LAN Segments in VMware Workstation Pro
HTML-код

- In this video, we will be showing you how to create and configure LAN segments so you can isolate your virtual machines on their own private network. You can think of a LAN segment as adding a virtual switch that you can then connect your VMs to.
We will also be showing you how to setup internet connection sharing (ICS) on one of the VMs using the NAT network and then configuring the other VMs to use that virtual machine for their shared internet connection.
Check out our book (VMware Workstation Made Easy) that is designed to take your virtualization skills to the next level!

You really helped me understand everything I needed for networking on VMware. You are great
Excellent Video!!! Thanks for the explanation and informative examples!
Windows 10 Firewall settings: Turned OFF Microsoft Defender Firewall in "Public Network".
Left "Private and Domain" Networks ON.
Worked for me! ;-)
if you need it to work with the firewall on you can simply create a ICMP inbound rule on the firewall settings, this way it'll allow you to ping without having to turn off the firewall
thanks for sharing, this was a realy good explanation and tip for VMachines networking.
thank you
if the ping is not working try to disable the firewall
Thank you
Thanks!!
This is beautiful. My question though is how do I put this VLAN segment onto a pfSense set up to route traffic and firewall rules among them? This has been my dream. Help please.
Note that the LAN segments only exists inside of VMWare Workstation on this specific computer. If you want pfsense to provide internet for the virtual LAN segment, you need to create a pfsense virtual machine, add multiple network cards to the VM - one for internet access (not on a LAN segment), another that you connect to the LAN segment (and possibly other cards for other LAN segments you have if you have multiple). Then configure pfsense to have the 2nd card be the "internal" card (connected to LAN segment) and the other card be internet (connected to another internet connected vmware network).
Hi
How can I do this same configuration, but with Linux as the primary machine? That is, the IP in the example 192.168.10.101 should be Linux instead of Windows 11 Pro, and the rest should remain as they are. Or could someone else tell me?
I doing something similar, but with 4 VMs, but they won't communicate with each other. I can't get a ping response.
try dissabling the firewall on the machines your trying to ping, if that works reply to this comment and ill instruct you on how to make it work with the firewall on

Do you know how I can create a VLAN for the Guest VM where it can access internet but still keeping the guest vm isolated from the host and networks?
I can’t find how to do this and need help
By adding a virtual router?
Thanks for sharing this, very useful. I'm setting up a VMWare Lab with about 6 VMs with mostly servers so I could give them the 192.168.10.x addresses or similar but for DNS would it be best to set one of them say the DC as a local DNS server that the other machines would talk to for local name resolution and have the Google public DNS set as secondary?
Would it be possible to setup a pfsense VM and have that doing dhcp for the VMs while they are running?
My MacOS Monterey on VMware workstation pro 16 keeps restarting because there’s a problem. It says kernel panic. May you help please. Thank you. I have subscribed.
Is this setup safe for a Malware lab setup in VM?
Since your machines are segmented from your local machines' network I figured I could use this same setup for my environment, I'm just concerned about the machines having gateway access. In a Malware lab, there is no communication between the "infected" machines so I'm wondering if this would be good for analyzing the traffic of malware.
Also is your local machine able to communicate with the VMs on the segmented VM network?
With this setup, VM1 can still communicate to the Host. Best setup for malware testing is no internet access, but most "next-gen" AV's are at their best with internet access, since their definitions and ML/AI behaviors would be cloud based... i'm still trying to find a good setup for this myself.
Sorry I have a question... instead of enabling internet sharing wasn't that enough to set the default gatway to the other 2 machines as the first machine is natted and can go out to internet so it can act as gateway.
Maybe I'm missing some technical concept. 🤔
If not...I'm thinking in order to act as I say we should add a "route add" to the first machine... right?
Thanks,
Fabio
