This guide will walk you through:
- creating a NAT network
- connecting an existing virtual machine to your new n2.etwork
- confirming that the virtual machine is connected correctly
Requirement:
Hyper-V role installed.
Administrastion privilege.
1. Create a new internal switch.
New-VMSwitch -SwitchName "SwitchName" -SwitchType Internal
2. Located the ifIndex of this NetAdapter which is mapped by internal switch.
PS C:\> Get-NetAdapter
Name InterfaceDescription ifIndex Status MacAddress LinkSpeed
---- -------------------- ------- ------ ---------- ---------
vEthernet (intSwitch) Hyper-V Virtual Ethernet Adapter 24 Up 00-15-5D-00-6A-01 10 Gbps
Wi-Fi Marvell AVASTAR Wireless-AC Net... 18 Up 98-5F-D3-34-0C-D3 300 Mbps
Bluetooth Network ... Bluetooth Device (Personal Area... 21 Disconnected 98-5F-D3-34-0C-D4 3 Mbps
So with this output, ifIndex 24 will be selection.
3. New a NAT GateWay Address as an inside address(it is not necessary)
New NatIpAddress -ipAddress 192.168.0.1 -PrefixLength 24 -InterfaceIndex 24
4. Config or New a NAT policy which is equal to config a nat offload (important).
new-NetNat -Name myFirstInternalNat -InternalIPInterfaceAddressPrefix 192.168.0.0/24
