| On Linux, Mac OS X and Solaris Oracle VM VirtualBox will only allow IP addresses in 192.68.56.0/21 range | |
| to be assigned to host-only adapters. | |
| For IPv6 only link-local addresses are allowed. | |
| If other ranges are desired, | |
| they can be enabled by creating /etc/vbox/networks.conf and specifying allowed ranges there. | |
| For example, to allow 10.0.0.0/8 and 192.168.0.0/16 IPv4 ranges as well as 2001::/64 range | |
| put the following lines into /etc/vbox/networks.conf: | |
| * 10.0.0.0/8 192.168.0.0/16 | |
| * 2001::/64 | |
| Lines starting with the hash # are ignored. Next example allows any addresses, effectively disabling range control: | |
| * 0.0.0.0/0 ::/0 | |
| If the file exists, but no ranges are specified in it, no addresses will be assigned to host-only adapters. The following example effectively disables all ranges: | |
| # No addresses are allowed for host-only adapters |
