My question is, even though a dhcp server is created, it is basically like connecting a dhcp server to a same switch as our host machine right? So, technically if a malware somehow reaches our dhcp server, it has potentiality to reach our host machine as well. Right? (Since the dhcp server is pingable from the host machine )
Thank you for watching! All the DHCP server is responsible for is dynamically assigning IP addresses. You should have your Hypervisor’s network configured to internal or “isolated”. I’m currently at the gym but I’ll post a follow-up. If you haven’t already consider subscribing
Please explain me in detail it would be very helpful. I an relatively new and am getting confused. As far as I know, it is creating a virtual DHCP server like we would physically connect it to a switch in which out host system is connected. And the host pc should be able to ping the DHCP server(Corrrect me if i am wrong). Even though the devices are in lan segmented and cannot be reached from the host, the DHCP can be reached right? It means also the host is reachable from DHCP server. So, suppose a malware gets into our DHCP server somehow, it should be able to propate onto our network which is the host PC. I am thinking this all based on the assumption that even though the machine themselves are isolated from the host PC, the DHCP server is not because it requires NAT. So please enlighten me @@CyberStudies
Yep! I think that’s where the confusion is; so in the video around the 12min mark, you modify the VBoxManage.exe and the associated options. In that executable, you’re able to setup a DHCP that’s INTERNAL to VirtualBox. You’re able to reach this with your host if you setup your network to be “bridged” or any other configuration. As long as you do “internal” networking and follow my steps, you should be good to rock ‘n roll. While this video is still relevant, it is around 2yrs old. I’m probably gonna redo it so make sure you’re subscribed so you don’t miss it!
Thanks for watching! I haven’t used Vagrant however I found that there’s native Virtualbox support via SSH. Remember in THIS particular use case, the networking is configured to be isolated. Please consider subscribing so you don’t miss future videos!
Thank you for watching! In this demonstration, we wanted to have an isolated lab with no internet connectivity AND have multiple VMs connected to each other by leveraging a DHCP server.

@@sempaiart4391 I mean, it's good practice to hide your network regardless, but no, so long as you follow the steps to secure your VM network as suggested in this video, it won't make you any more insecure than having your network SSID unhidden in general. I'm my opinion.

How bad would it be if my Kai box had two network adaptors? As in one is the internal network and the other is NAT I keep finding myself needing to go online for websites and updates. I’ve usually just shutdown all the boxes, turn the Kali machines network adapter to NAT, did what I need, reboot everything with the internal network. It gets kind of annoying tbh
I received a ton of comments on this exact topic that might warrant a follow-up video. The use case for a SECURE lab implied a “contained” network setup. This might be more applicable to Malware/Forensics Analysis versus general research. Thank you for watching!
Did not work for me at first but figured it out... I had to use lower case L on lower and E on enable, then it worked fine. Thank you for the video, I was wondering how to set this up..!

Wow i'm a newb, trying to figure out how dhcp server is used in real life to give IP Address to each machines. I found this on Oracle web VBoxManage dhcpserver add { --network=netname | --interface=ifname } {--server-ip=address} {--netmask=mask} {--lower-ip=address} {--upper-ip=address} { --enable | --disable } Now i have my own hacking machine Wish U all the Best!
Thank you for breaking it down step by step. I had a few hiccups but they were my fault. 1) Incorrect Powershell 32 bit version so I was not able to run the 64 bit commands. 2.) Syntax got to make sure spell ing is correct, other than that...all is running smoothly. Much appreciated
Fundamentally it should be similar; I’ve received a few requests so I think I’m going to make a “Secure Lab for Linux” vid. Make sure you’re subscribed so you don’t miss out!
Great Video!! Thank you! - Is there any way to modify this setup so you can have just the Kali box accessing the internet, so you can install tools/updates? Or is there another way to go about that?
Thank you for the feedback! I made this video about two years ago so I definitely need to revise it a little haha if you haven’t already, consider liking and subscribing, so you don’t miss the update!
@@CyberStudies Yeah, I didn't notice it's a toddler already :) One more thing to correct: VBoxManage is actually case-sensitive, as I just found out, so the description should say --lower-ip, --enable Anyhow, it's a great video, helped me solve my problem. I'm still not sure why static addresses stopped working on all VMs, but I needed a quick solution, you provided it! Thank you, sir!
Hey man, trying to set this up and a really well done video. Just running into an error when setting the ips for the internal network. Gives me a few errors when trying to set the ips. It creates the network successfully just have to include all the addresses. Any ideas on how to fix this?
This is the best video Ive seen on the topic thank you for the amazing content. Immediately subscribed. I am wondering whether its possible to have a fully isolated environment to make sure host is safe, while still maintaining internet access in the virtualized environment? Or am I talking nonsense? I am a total beginer, recently discovered ctl +c ctl + v type of beginer.
Thank you very much for the kind words! This video is a little bit old at the moment so maybe an updated version is needed! When you say you want the host to have no internet access and the virtualized machines to have it; you could probably achieve this by disabling internet access on the host machine. I imagine this is a unique use case since you won’t be able to patch/update your Hypervisor. Hope you figure out a solution! Have a good one!
Thank you for your prompt reply, I will definitely be on the lookout for update video if you make it. Pardon me, perhaps I did not express myself correctly, what I meant to ask is whether its possible to allow your VMs internet access without them being able to communicate with host? So perhaps in case a VM gets compromised, attacker cant pivot into the Home actual real network? And malware on VM can not infect the host type of isolation? I hope that makes sense. Again, thank you for putting out this content, it brings a ton of value to viewers like me.
what if i dont want to use a pre made vulnerable server? what if i want to learn on my own server from scratch so i can make my server more and more safe while i learn new vulnerabilities? wouldnt it be better for learning if i can be both blue and red team for my own server?
Absolutely! So you do NOT have to use a vulnerable server. In fact the only use case is for “red team” activity.

This only worked for me when I run VirtualBox as "admin" as I only use my OSs as 'unprivileged user' so to speak. If anyone was able to make this work without runnning VBox as admin, please, share with us!
Thank you for your kind words! If you are interested, we are in the works of making a Malware analysis lab video. If you wanted to see that, make sure to subscribe so you don’t miss the next one.
Mine did not work as one small step was ommitted in the video, when setting up Network settings inside the virtual machine settings in VirualBox, select 'Internal Network', but also click 'advanced' below and make sure that in 'Promiscuous Mode' - Allow VMs is selected instead of 'Deny' by default otherwise your VMs will not connect to your lab network which you created in CMD. But other than that, a great video! Thank you :)
So, when we need to update our tools, or if we need our attacking VM to have internet access for whatever reason in the future, can we just go back into the network settings on VirtualBox and switch the network type for that VM back to NAT or whatever setting is appropriate for our environment, or do we need to go back into the VBoxManage CLI and do more stuff with regards to the DHCP server we setup in this process? Thanks in advance. Hope you're well!
Do I have to redo the dhcp Server setup all over again when i download a different machine to hack form VulnHub? or do I keep it on the internal network?
Thank you for this helpfull video mate.But I got some error messages while creating a dhcp server.Then I realized the command you gave me on below has some little mistakes.The mistakes are:"Lowerip"and "Enable" should be lowercase.I hope you fix that :)
How it is recommended to connect our computers to the internet, ethernet or wifi? I'm still wondering about that, what's the best and safest way (to us) to do so? Thanks!
Thanks for watching! My first question would be what are your goals when you say “secure”? There are a few options out-of-the-box that allow the guest VM’s to talk to each other while also having internet access.
So by using the “NAT” setting you’re essentially running your host machine as a “router”. You will need to firewall the host from the guest or disable services and harden the host if you are concerned about the guest infecting the host. Also no shared folders or shared clipboards. “Securely” is very subjective but we want to minimize the chance of contamination on our hypervisor. Good luck!!!
Thank you for the video. Straight forward to follow. However, I am running into difficulties. Window is stopping the download of the vulnerable server. He prompts that viruses detected. What do I do?
Thank you for watching and the kind words! Yeah I’ve heard from other comments that the vulnerable VMs are getting flagged. I’m not sure if that’s because of the nature of the box’s vulnerability? Or if people are being malicious? Either way I’d try a few different ones and if they’re all being flagged/blocked, you might need to do some troubleshooting. Different sites? Enable/Disable Microsoft defender (not recommended)? If you haven’t already, consider liking and subscribing so you don’t miss future content!

The VirtualBox install and creating the VMs part is I got, i am just curious the best way to do the isolated network on the Linux host.

i gave up. i got an error saying option --netmask
can i use the nat network option for a hacking lab
would you be able to do firewall configuration as well?

What if you want the Kali box to access the internet for updates, but you don't want the other vulnerable machines to access the internet or your internal home network?
Because you will be risking your home network security. It's possible that some VMs could be a backdoor to your network or may have malware.
You could swap the network and just update kali then go back to internal network after
thank you a lot for the help buddy you are the great.....

Hey bro i'm new here but i'd like to suggest to make your audio a little more louder, im having a hard time here trying to listen without my pods
Absolutely! Thank you for your feedback and we appreciate you watching
First
Hahaha ‘grats!!!
Couldn’t you set all your boxes to nat network to communicate?
Great Video. Can you do one or suggest links for setting up a isolated lab like this but where VirtualBox is installed and running on a Linux host such as Linux Mint instead of a Windows host? The VirtualBox install and creating the VMs part is I got, i am just curious the best way to do the isolated network on the Linux host.
Thank you for watching; I think this is an AMAZING idea! I’ve used KVM and QEMU in the past and I’m sure this could make a unique and fun video. Subscribe so you don’t miss the video!
