VM virtual machine + operating system installation

 

The vm virtual machine is a "virtual PC" software. It allows you to run two or more Windows, DOS, LINUX systems on one machine at the same time. Compared with the "multi-start" system, the vm virtual machine adopts a completely different concept. The multi-start system can only run one system at a time, and the machine needs to be restarted when the system is switched. With the increasing number of users of this software, there are various language versions since 10.0.

Configure the hardware environment of the virtual machine

 

Note, the experimental environment of this course is Windows server 2008 R2. Generally, the basic hardware is set to 40G hard disk, 1 core CPU,

Memory 2G. The hardware size and performance can also be adjusted according to your physical machine.

 

 

 

When selecting the network adapter mode, it is necessary to distinguish the three modes of bridging, NAT, and host only. Dormitory environment

It is recommended to choose NAT mode.

 

 Bridge mode: It is equivalent to building a bridge between the physical host and the virtual machine network card, so that the external network can be accessed through the physical host network card.

 NAT mode: Let the network service of the VM virtual machine play the role of a router, so that the host simulated by the virtual machine software can access the external network through the physical host. In the real machine, the physical network card corresponding to the NAT virtual machine network card is VMnet8.

 Host-only mode: Only the host in the virtual machine can communicate with the physical host and cannot access the external network. In the real machine, only the physical network card corresponding to the host mode analog network card is VMnet1.
