Virtualbox + 10GbE NIC

Post by jannbjorn »

My workstation has a couple of 10GbE fibre ports. Both work out-of-the box with Mint.

I'm trying to configure a VM to use one of the ports but am not succeeding.

Can anyone point me in the right direction please?

Thanks

SOLVED: Re: Virtualbox + 10GbE NIC

As I was migrating existing VM's the problem I was encountering was due to a change in the interface name within the VM.

I logged into each VM locally to get the new interface name (ip a)

Then I edited:

For Debian VM's
/etc/network/interfaces

For Fedora VM's
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-enp0sxx
