Re: Virtual Box Network and COM-Port setting
For a host-guest simulated network connection use "Host Only" network mode.
For the comm port, just enable it in the VM settings and associate it with a selected host comm port. It will be visible in the guest as COM1 unless you change the defaults.
See user manual for details on both.
