Windows7 network connectivity issue

[plcguy8]

Hi,

I am using VMware WorkStation V10.0. Host is Windows7 Enterprise SP1. I have installed Windows 7 Professional SP1 in VMware. In the virtual machine I see that in the network connections my LAN card says unidentified network. In virtual network editor I have checked and I am using auto bridging one of the LAN ports of my host machine. I am not connected to any network but my virtual machine still shows unidentified network. Is this a normal behavior in windows7? I also use a XP virtual machine and that works OK.

Would you please check the checkbox "Replicate physical network connection state"in the VM network adapter setting?

Then VM can realize the connection state of the host network adapter.
