I have 1 desktop 1 NIC(physical), Windows 7 professional (host & all guests). 1 modem with a static IP dail up DSL conection.
Each VM also has dail up connection on desktop (static IP).
When I dail up from any VM it shows me the static IP (which is what I want)
I need to make sure that when a dail up disconnection takes place on any VM the guest will not be able to access the host's LAN directly.
In other words, when the dail up connection on any of my VM desktop is not dailed I will not have internet access....
Would appreciate any help and sorry if I was unclear before.
Let's go a step further and continue on the why/what you need. You're only telling us how right now.
Why do you have several VMs? Why do you need them to get the external static IP? Why can't they access your LAN when having an external IP?

If I uncheck the box "allow control running device to share this community adapter" this IP Address:192.168.1.1 I recently used, will my VM's nonetheless be able to talk with the parent partition? Will I nevertheless be able to do a live migration between hosts with this checkbox unchecked?
Is the most effective motive to check this field in case you don't have sufficient NICs then you may allow your VM visitors to head over the host control port?
This is on VirtualBox? That sound like Hyper-V terminology. VirtualBox does not have a parent partition. What sort of "live migration" are we discussing?
Virtual machines are not "devices running on this machine". They are separate machines running their own OS.
