I have Debian VM and can not ping it outside and access internet inside. The important requirement is have ip address to listen for the server which run on Debian.

By default my config looks as this

Inital config

My host machine ipconfig:

I added static ip to VM within my local network. After that looks like this:

config with bridge

However, I still don't able connect network form VM and can ping this ip from host machine either. Did I misunderstand something? Simply bridge in VM settings and ip within available list should be enough

Ethernet adapter VirtualBox Host-Only Network:

The clue is here, you need either bridged or NAT network. This is changed in the VM's network settings.

This page explains the options in detail.

    Thank you for clue! My VM already configured network as bridge. Shall I configure something else? The page by link doesn't provide this info -- it iterate only what I already did.
