If everything works and you are comfortable with these operations then you may proceed to the next section.

If the network works in your host, but not in your Virtual Machine, you should perform the following routine steps to troubleshoot the network connection:

There are a number of other problems that could prevent your network connection from functioning but the above are the most common problems.

Move to your '''vm1''' machine in order to perform the following trouble-shooting task:<ol type="a"><li>Use the '''wget''' command (with option "--no-check-certificate" ) to download and run the following shell script:<br>http://scs.senecacollege.ca/~murray.saul/ops335/break-network.bash<br><br>'''NOTE: If the wget command is not available with your minimum install vms, then install that command.'''<br><br></li><li>after you have run that shell script, restart your vm1 machine.</li><li>Use the commands taught in this lab to confirm if your network connection is broken.</li><li>Carefully check your configuration to see if there is a change to your settings</li><li>Try to temporarily connect to the Internet</li><li>Edit your network settings file to make the changes permanent</li><li>Test your connectivity (including after a reboot of your vm1.<br><br></li></ol>'''Note:''' You should be able to go through that troubleshooting process pretty quickly. Setting up the network in this course is never a primary task, but it's almost always a prerequisite for anything else we're going to do. You can't have a working web server (or any other kind of server) if you don't have a working network connection.
