Host with 2 NIC cards

[sacvmuser]

I have a host with 2 NIC cards. I have created a Windows Guest with 2 NIC cards. I would like to bind each NIC on the guest to a different physical NIC on the host. Is there a way to do this? They always end up both binding to the same NIC.

Hello.

You can do this. Assuming you have a Windows host, make sure the VMWare Bridge Protocol is bound to both of the network cards in the host. Then use the VMware Virtual Network Editor to set VMnet0 to bridge to 1 of the NICs in the host. Set vmnet2 or another unused one to bridge to the other nic in the host.

Good Luck!

Thanks, I forgot about the Virtual Network Editor.
