Hi all, my case is as following:
Host = Linux Mint 19 64bit with virtualbox 6, Guest= windows xp 32bit.
my purpose is to make guest windows communicate with external PLC with static ip 192.168.0.1.
I tried usning bridged network on virtualbox and left host network with dhcp on, the guest windows must have a static ip 192.168.0.2 and allready assignet this adresse. The PLC wont communicate with the client windows application unless it has the mentioned ip adress and this mac adress: 0007B8DC6FE9.
I have been struggling with this issue for long time and tried almost all combinations with no luck ,whenever I ping the plc from guest wind just recieve error contacting mentioned IP adress. By the way I tried windows 7 64bit as host and it worked without any problem windows xp conneted to external PLC and application. I realized that virtualbox on windows 7 as host creates Virtual network card and assign an ip adress to it and whenever I ping the plc from guest it returns: packages sent with no loss. But I prefer Linux mint as host besides it is much quicker with less crashes in case of power interreption. I would appreciate any help and would be very greatfull for any tutorial or explanation.
