before in 2.0.6, it was just easy to do this...

--
%vbm% createhostif "hostif1"
%vbmodify% -nic1 hostif -hostifdev1 "hostif1"
--

But now in v2.1, the new feature came. I'd like to use the existing interface for hostif.

Now the question is, How do I easily do this in console mode?
say the interface name is random "Atlantic blah blah blah 1g" cause I'm using it in different pcs.

Please help, thanks.

Check the logical name of the interface. You can see this in Device Manager. It's also in the registry. Though it might be a bit too much work.

If you want to specify the whole name of the interface you just mentioned, enclose it in quotation marks (").

Yeah, I've created a different program to read registry descriptionName of the card.

But I was hoping it is a part of the console feature for easy headless setup.

Neways, Thanks.
