sorry my message before was in dutch I tought I was on a Belgium link so I explain again.
My host-only adapter vmnet1 is called ethernet1 in windows 10 and has ip address 192.168.17.1 (static)
The DHCP settings in VMWare of vmnet are
subnet 192.168.17.0
mask 255.255.255.0
ip start 192.168.17.128
ip end 192.168.17.254
the dhcp address of my windows 7 guest (as example) is 192.168.17.132 and is the only guest
why is my guest not 192.168.17.128?
(in the future i wil run a dhcp vm (gns3 vm) that must communicate with a software gns3 so the address is important for me.
