Port forwarding GUI under NAT in Fusion Pro like it is offered in the network editor for Workstation Pro for Windows?

Hello

We have just acquired Vmware Fusion Pro 11 at work and are very surprised that the GUI for adding port forwarding under NAT is not been offered. This GUI has been offered in Workstation Pro for Windows for ages via the Network Editor.

I have read on the net that this can be done modifying text files somewhere but why is this feature not been offered on the GUI in a professional version is beyond my understanding. This should have been definitely offered by Vmware directly in the GUI of Fusion Pro without the need to modify obscure settings in text files.

Hi,

You can see it once you add a new NAT network.

Hi Thorz ,

Port forwarding UI could be found via Fusion -> Preferences...-> Network.

Under Network I could not see anywhere where you can set port forwarding. Can you say exactly where it is?
