CentOS Networking with V Box

[Michael Torres]

Hello all,

I have an problem that  I cannot seem to figure out.....

I am trying to use "Bridged" networking in Virtual Box to a CentOS 7
minimum install distro that I want to use for my development server.

I have used Bridged networking in the past and never had any issues but
that was with older versions of CentOS

The issue....  DHCP will not assign a IPv4 address to the server.

Here is the weird part...  I was at startbucks and actually got it to work!
(Please, hold the "Just use it at starbucks then" comments..I know....)

Here is the process I used...

-Installed a fresh CentOS 7 on VBox
-While on NAT,  I performed "yum update" so my server was fresh with the
latest
-Disabled SELinux
-Disabled the Firewall
-Shut down server to reconfigure the adapter to "Bridged"
-used adapter type of "Intel Pro 1000 MT Desktop (82540EM)"
-set it to "Promiscuous Mode"
-restart the server


Again, at Starbucks it assigned a IP address, so this leads me to believe
that the issue is with a configuration on my router.

I am not very good at networking, so any help would be appreciated.

If you need error messages or other output, let me know (and possibly the
command as I don't know networking that well other than "ifconfig")


Mike
