Virtualbox host only network only show ipv6 address - virtualbox

I have ubuntu VM on Virtualbox with host-only network. When I run ifconfig I notice VM's address only have ipv6 address. What could be wrong? I need ipv4 address for my VM.
Here is my VM's interface
my VBOX version is 5.1.26

host a WebApplication in Vmware with shared Internet Network with Host-Machine

I have Windows 7 as a Host OS on my PC, It's Connected to the Internet.
I have a Win-Server 2016 on my VMware workstation. Its my Web-Application's host.
Win-Server is Connected to the internet through my host os (Win 7) using a NAT connection.
I want to host my webApplication in this VM (winServer 2016) which has a shared Internet connection.
My Win-Server Connection has this Local IP Address: 192.168.111.19
My Win7 has this Local IP Address: 192.168.111.1
Both of them are Connected to the Internet using (something like) this IP: 86.10.15.20
When I host my Application in Win7, it will works through my Internet IP (86.10.15.20)
But When I host, my Application on Win-Server (in VM), I doesn't work at all.
Actually I don't know what Scenario I must implement to achieve this goal. Please note, what should I do ?
Sounds like you need to update the NAT rule to point to the Win-Server VM IP address instead of you Win7 IP address. This is normally done at the router level.

unable to ssh from host(windows 7) to linux installed on virtual box

i have installed redhat linux on virtual box running on windows 7 hostmachine.
Now i need to ssh from windows to linux.
windows ip address 192.168.1.152
gateway: 192.168.1.2
ethernet adapter virtual box hostonly network
ip address 192.168.56.1
Linux ip address 10.0.2.15
gateway 10.0.2.2
i am able to connect to internet from linux. Please suggest how to ssh.
Virtual networking you used is NAT, if you want to connect to redhat via ssh then add port forwarding rules in virtual box.
And use localhost as IP address in putty.
Make sure SSH daemon is running in redhat.

Assigning a static ip address to vm machine on esxi host in vcenter

I am new to vmware. I have installed vcenter in a server and also built a cluster. I am having 4 hosts in my cluster. I created vm's on each cluster. I am unable to assign a static ip to vm machine in hosts. How to assign a static ip to a vm machine??
In vSphere, you can customize guest IP addresses only during deployment of a VM from a template. If you have already existing VMs, you have to use the tools of the guest OSes to modify their network settings.
But that does not mean you have to access the guest OS directly. If VMware Tools are installed on the guest OS, you can instead use the PowerCLI cmdlet Invoke-VMScript to call guest OS tools that configure your network settings.
Example for Windows with netsh:
Invoke-VMScript -ScriptText 'C:\Windows\system32\netsh.exe interface ip set address "connection name" static 192.168.0.123 255.255.255.0 192.168.0.1 1' -VM MyVM -GuestCredential (Get-Credential)
How do you assign Static IP address to A Physical Server ?
same goes for a Virtual Server..
Open Network and Sharing Center
Click on Change Adapter Settings
Right Click on Adapter
Select Properties
open Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) if using IPv4
Select the Radio Button "User the Following IP address"
Do the Same for the DNS if you want Select "Use the Following IP Address"
End Result Static IP within a VM

VMware have network access but can't ping anywhere

I am using VMware 9.0.0 on a Windows 7(64bits) host, the guest OS is CentOS 6.5(I have tried Ubuntu 12.04 also).
Firewall on Windows 7 is completely disabled. My host is connected to a router via wireless network adapter.
Guest's network configuration is NAT, and guest IP address is 192.168.117.130. Default gateway of the guest is 192.168.117.2. The Nat Interface(VMware Network Adapter VMnet8) on Windows 7 have an IP address of 192.168.117.1.
The problem I met is that I can have Internet access, actually, every network service using TCP and UDP is ok. But I can't ping any host other than hosts on the network of 192.168.17.0/24.
I used wireshark to locate the problem. I found a strange phenomenon, my host can receive the ping echo request from the guest and ping echo response, but it is not forwarding to the guest. Seems the NAT of ICMP packet is not working.
Any suggestions?

How to enable connection to virtualbox machine from outside the Host (i.e. from any PC connected to Internet)

I have a Host with VirtualBox installed and Guest installed (both with Windows XP SP3).
I do have connection between them. And also the guest have an internet connection.
I can connect via Remote Desktop Connection from Host to Guest, but I also want to be able to connect to Guest from any other PC. If can, how to achieve this?
Guest is using 2 network adapters, one NAT for sharing the internet connection and then one Host-only to be able for both machines to see each other on the local network.
Assuming you have an Internet router providing access to your ISP...
Change the VM networking from NAT to Bridged.
Check that the guest still has Internet connectivity after rebooting or ipconfig /renew.
Configure the router to give the guest a fixed IP address. (Typically, the guest can still use DHCP but the router is configured to give the guest the same IP address every time.)
Determine which ports and protocols needed to connect with the guest. E.G, TCP on port 3389 (RPD) for Remote Desktop.
Configure the router's "port-forwarding" feature to route external connections to the IP address of your guest. You can designate a different port for the external connections but that might not get through firewalls between the remote computer and its ISP.
Determine the external IP address of your Internet router.
Connect from the remote computer to the IP address and designated port.
