hi
host:centos 7
guest: win7
VBox : 5.0.12r104815
Guest Additions: 5.0.0

The host was being assigned a static IP , and the VM network was using a bridged adapter. I want to know how to set a static IP for guest win7 with VBoxManage command.

You typically set the static address inside the guest. You might be able to use the VBoxManage guestcontrol ( see your users manual for the proper syntax ) but I have not tried since I always set the address inside the guest.

Because i have hundreds of win 7 guest vms , if I set the IP address inside the guest, it will be a hard work.So i want to find a way to set the guest ip with VBoxManage command，and guest ip can be set by a script automatically.

Windows 7 change IP address from command prompt.

A much easier way would be to configure your DHCP server with address reservations.
