I'm using VirtualBox on Ubuntu 16.04 (VBox version is 5.1.34_Ubuntu r121010 - the the current version available using apt-get) and trying to get a RHEL guest working (to set up as a vagrant box).
I've installed the OS from iso and I've set it up with bridged networking on a PC-Net FAST III adapter. I've also set up an Ubuntu server guest with all the same settings. Ubuntu works fine, RHEL has no network - 'ip a' shows no IP address. Can anyone assist?
VBoxManage showvminfo shows:
