VirtualBox NICs

Post by vistad »

I am on Linux Mint 18.2 Mate 64. I use Windows (required) in VBox to manage my bank account. Recently my internet bank stopped working, showing a confusing error message: "System crashed. System has got incorrect (emply) error message". I contacted customer support and had them to look into logs. They said the system records client configuration, and as to NICs - it can record a max of 10, and my computer had much more - hence the error message. I did ipconfig /all in my VM and got a terrible list of NICs. How to clean this debris and bring the NICs in order? To use VBoxManage to remove extra ones? Which ones? Here is the list:

Re: VirtualBox NICs

Post by mpack »

All of the adapters mentioning TAP or ISATAP or "media disconnected" have nothing to do with VirtualBox. I only see one VirtualBox NIC in there, and it's easy to identify (Intel(R) PRO/1000 MT Desktop Adapter).

I suggest that you Google for what the TAP stuff is all about.

mpack,

thank you very much for your advice! ISATAP (Intra-Site Automatic Tunnel Addressing Protocol) is an IPv6 transition mechanism meant to transmit IPv6 packets between dual-stack nodes on top of an IPv4 network.

May be you know how to delete all those fake adapters? I would be most grateful!

As mpack said, that really has nothing to do with VirtualBox. You should be able to delete them from within Windows from Device Manager (if you are confident that you do not really need them). Select "show hidden devices" from the View tab if you can't see them in device manager.

and I would back up the VM before making any changes you can't easily undo.

BillG and mpack,

thank you very much for your advice!

However, if you run ipconfig /all in Windows installed in a physical rig (I did that many times), you will never have that many NICs. So, IMHO Virtual Box still has something to do with that. Windows created all those NICs in response to some inner Virtual Box conditions.

No it didn't. No one has ever reported something like that. VirtualBox does not have a need for all those TAP adapters. It can't even use them, let alone create them. VirtualBox creates one and only one adapter, if you choose to, during the installation. That's it. IMHO there's something in your system/setup that is causing this, and most certainly it is not VirtualBox. Look for the culprit elsewhere.

If you obfuscate any information requested, I will obfuscate my response. These are virtual UUIDs, not real ones.

Really? How about you look in Device Manager rather than use ipconfig. My physical machine shows more than 10. Only two are physical NICs.
