[Solved] From Windows10 to Window10 Reply from Ip Destination host unreachable

Post by sergorl »

My host is Windows 10 and my target (guest) is Windows 10 too.

In network settings inside virtual image for guest I choose "Network bridge".

ping host from guest gives me:
Reply from IpGuest: Destination host unreachable.

and ping guest from host gives me the next info:
Reply from IpHost: Destination host unreachable.

I want to use guest for windows kernel debugging, so I try to turn connection via ping at first.

How can I fix it?

Take a look at ch. 6.2. Introduction to Networking Modes, especially the Overview of Networking Modes table. See what connections you have available to talk between host and guest: HostOnly and Bridged. I would choose HostOnly, it's always available.

Also, Windows may (does?) not allow responses to ping by default. You have to turn it on in the Windows firewall, "File and Printer Sharing (Echo Request - ICMPv4-In)", on Private networks at least, domain & public too if your Virtualbox network connection is not "private" type in either OS.

@socratis, Im my Virtual Box I have no "HosOnly". Instead I have "Host-only adapter" and using this option with ping gives me
"Request timed out."
for both machines.

That's not enough information to continue I'm afraid, we need some numbers. We need to see the output, from both the host and the guest, of the command:
  • 
    ipconfig /all
and from the host of the command:
  • 
    "C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\VBoxManage" list hostonlyifs
    "C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\VBoxManage" list dhcpservers

Some MAC? No, that's not some MAC, that's the IPv6 address. And even if it was a MAC address, are you are obfuscating a fake, random, useless-except-your-host MAC? Security is a good thing, paranoia is not.
[quote="sergorl"]   Автонастройка IPv4-адреса . . . . : 169.254.247.17[/quote]
That's an APIPA address. It looks like your HostOnly adapter is not set up properly. Go to File » Host Network Manager. Make sure that the "Properties" is enabled, and in the "Adapter" tab at the bottom select "Configure Adapter Manually" » IPv4 Address = 192.168.56.1. Restart your computer, restart your VM.
[quote="sergorl"]C:\Users\sergorl>ipconfig[/quote]
When I'm asking for the output of the command "ipconfig /all" I expect that command, not the one you thought would be good enough (ipconfig). Please pay closer attention to what's asked of you next time...

Just a quick note: The network mask of your Host-Only adapter is wrong, and should be 255.255.255.0. It conflicts with your wireless network this way.

There might be some confusion in there, you're right fth0, brings another recent topic in memory: Host-only network stops working, when connecting to 192.168.x.x IP-network...

But more importantly, the guest didn't receive an IP address, it's still using APIPA addressing:

@sergorl,
What happens if you open a Command Prompt window in the guest, and you enter the command:
  • 
    ipconfig /renew

When I did inside guest this :

Code: Select all

ipconfig /renew
I saw:

Code: Select all

C:\Users\User>ipconfig /renew

Windows IP Configuration

An error occurred while renewing interface Ethernet 3 : unable to contact your DHCP server. Request has timed out.
Also changing mask on 255.255.255.0 inside Host Network manager has no positive effect.

@socratis:
I do not trust the Host Network Manager dialogs further than I can throw a rock ;) (see viewtopic.php?f=6&t=92547&p=452797&hilit=DHCP#p452797 for the details). Therefore I would recommend to Remove the existing Host-Only adapter, reboot the host, Create the Host-Only adapter anew, configure it, thereby verifying every step :!:, reboot the host again, and verify the Host-Only adapter again before using it.

@fth0, you are my saver! It works now: I did everything you wrote. I wonder to be a windows driver-kernel developer, but at first stage (tuning the connection between two machine for debugging) I meet such trouble, but you help me very much! Thank you :)
