Supressing the message "A virtual machine is attempting to monitor all network traffic message"

[ronnutter]

I am using Fusion 5.0 to run ESXi and keep getting this message when I start up ESXi.  It is rather annoying.  Is there any way that I can supress the message ?

Take care!

thanks for the message.  This is not a problem.  With ESXi running under Fusion, this is an expected behavior.  I just want to keep the message from popping up.

HI,

If you have the Professional version then you can set the option to suppress this notification in the network settings.

Go to menu VMware Fusion -> Preferences -> Network

There's a checkbox for it at the bottom of that screen, just above the lock icon.
