    <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;Welcome to the Community - The standard switch operates as a simple Layer 2 switch so you will have to set the IP address in the VM - you can either hard code the IP or use DHCP - as long as there is a DHCP server on your network. Using the vSphere CLient you will be able to open a console to the VM and set the IP address that way.-&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Check out the videos on vSphere Standard switch and installing a Guest Operating system for more information - &lt;A href="http://vmwarelearning.com/vsphere5_0/"&gt;http://vmwarelearning.com/vsphere5_0/&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

      <title>Network configuration for Virtual Machines with ESXi 5.0 hypervisor host</title>

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;I am new to VMware but I do not consider my self a novice in networking. I am using VMware Client to create and configure virtual machines (Win 2012 and Centos 6.3). I am having a very difficult time in being able to see any network data on the Win2012 Server VM. I have not checked the Centos VM but I assume it will show the same case. Installed wireshark on the windows server and can verify that the vm does not received any network data. I see that VM creates a VM standard switch and included in the configuration are the 2 vms as well as the Management network. Where in the hell do you set the ip addresses for the vms? Are the ip addresses for the VMs similar to virtual ip addresses that can be set on a single NIC within a Linix system? As you can probably tell, I getting quite frustrated here and at this point I am happy that I am using only an evaluation copy. I have looked at vmware documentation and do not see the "Manage configuration" tabs within the host configuration section as stated in the docs. I even added a second vmnic to the switch but I now I can not remove the adapter from the switch.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I come from a linux shop and have not dealt with Windows for quite some time. I am going to work with the Linux server to see if I have any luck with that vm.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Any help would be greatly appreciated.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Jay&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;I see that you set the ip address within the actual virtual machine but I still have an issue with seeing where the vm standard switch is managed / modified within the VM client. Thanks, &lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>
