Putting different VMs on different subnets

Post by subashw »

Hi

I have an iMac running OSX Lion with one physical NIC. The iMac is on a LAN in the premises of a one company that has different buildings. Each building is a different subnet. Here is my situation and what I need to accomplish:

iMac is in Building A, Subnet A connected to LAN and has a static IPv4 Address.
I have multiple VM instances of OpenBSD running on my iMac
Each VM instance has to become part of a different subnet.
VM1 should be part of Subnet of Building A, I want to assign a static IPv4 address
VM2 should be part of Subnet of Building B, I want to assign a static IPv4 address
VM3 should be part of Subnet of Building C, I want to assign a static IPv4 address

Can anybody advise:

1. Do I need to make any changes in the company LAN as it stands
2. How to accomplish the same using Virtual Box

Any pointers are greatly appreciated.

Regards

The VMs are just PCs. Configure their network interfaces as you would any other PC.
