Setting guest dhcp and connect to guest 2

[jacklee26]

Hi all,

I'm having a difficult of setting up a network. Do anyonw know how to set up it. I just wants to try it. But i try many times but it still can't work.

My Host (physical)PC is window 7, and install vmware worksation. Inside vmware  I install O, First guest is window 8, and second guest is window xp.

1 Guest setup dhcp 192.168.2.XXX

Problem1 : How do I connect Guest 2 to Guest 1. My guest 1 ip is  192.168.2  and set up a dhcp. How do Guest 2 obtain guest 1 dhcp ip address .  Guest 2 should obtain ip like 192.168.2.XXX

I can't figure out how to obtain ip from guest 1.

Problem 2: Since i set up guest 1 is a dhcp server, how do host(physical) also gain a dhcp ip address from guest 1

Problem 3 Since i have a dhcp in guest 1, what if i have another notebook, what if i want to connect to guest 1.

‌aare the Vm's network adapters bridged or Nat?

I Don't understand what is providing DHCP, but I would let a Lan router do that and set your guests to bridged. That should allow all of your guests to talk on your hosts network.
