What causes the message "A virtual machine is attempting to monitor all network traffic message" to display?

I have been using VMware Fusion 7.X for a long time and just noticed this message popup a few times this week.

Many people recommend the solution below, but I want to understand why the message is being triggered and what that functionality is.

  touch "/Library/Preferences/VMware Fusion/promiscAuthorized"

Please explain.
