Hello,
I am creating a Sharepoint test lab on my desktop (running Hyper-V role on Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise) as the host. I have the following configuration for the host and the virtual machines (also Windows Server 2008 R2 Std).
HOST
Dual NIC
NIC #1 - 192.168.0.11 - has access to the internet through the home router (192.168.0.1) and is used within Hyper-V Virtual Network Manager to connect to Virtual Network switch)
NIC #2 - 192.168.0.12 - has access to the internet through the home router (dedicated to host internet access only)
Guests (all VMs are part of AD domain "lab.net")
VM1 - DC (primary doman controller for "lab.net" with the DNS server role)
Windows Server 2008 R2 Std
IP : 10.0.0.1
Subnet: 255.255.255.0
Gateway : <blank>
DNS servers : 127.0.0.1
VM2 - APP1 (connected to AD domain "lab.net")
Windows Server 2008 R2 Std
IP : 10.0.0.2
Subnet: 255.255.255.0
Gateway : ???
DNS servers : 10.0.0.1 ( VM1)
I need to be able to connect to the internet from the VMs and for that I understand that I need to setup and configure RRAS. I also need to ensure that the VMs can talk to each other since they will eventually be part of a SharePoint farm.
I have looked at a ton of articles on Technet and others but am not able to get a step-by-step guide on acheiving this.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
AG
