I haven't found info about this specific topic, so I hope someone here can help me.
On my Windows host I created a network bridge so my linux guest can have access to other devices in the network.
Now I have following issue: While working in Windows I need to have an IP like 192.168.0.x but the Linux guest needs to work with an IP like 192.168.1.x
The IP in each cases is static.
Is it even possible to set different static IPs for guest and host of the bridged network?
P.S.: I'm aware that in this way I can't communicate with every device connected to the network but in my case it is a development environment and the bridged device is a seperate network device directly connect to a specific system, whereas for one i can work in Windows and for the other I need Linux.
Different IP for bridge in Windows and Linux guest

You can only access a different network with the use of a router. You can also add a second HIF and put that in the range of the network you want to access.
