I did, but it is now even confusing me. Please see following network IP address:

Local network have an IP address 192.168.1.105
VMnet1 = 192.168.100.1
VMnet8 = 192.168.50.128
 The bridge is connected between local network and the VMnet8, the
bridge IP adderess = 192.168.50.129.

In window console, the ipconfig cannot see the local IP address
192.168.1.105, it can only see the bridge ip address and VMnet1 ip
address.

I tried in my debian box to ping 192.168.1.105, 192.168.50.128 and
192.168.50.129. None of them works.

What I did wrong here?

Thank you.

Kind Regards,

Jim
