I have a VM running on Windows using Virtual Box and Vagrant.

How do I assign a local network IP address to this VM using a local DHCP?

The requirement is for this VM to be visible on the local network and to get the IP address from the local network's DHCP server.

  • You must enable Bridged Adapter under Network, instead of NAT.

As MariusMatutiae mentioned, you must switch the Virtual Network from NAT to Bridged. This will allow the VM to interact with other "real" devices on the network.

Use the following in your Vagrantfile. It will use DHCP by default.

config.vm.network "public_network"

Find the new IP address with 

vagrant ssh
ifconfig
ip address   # CentOS 7

  • set ssh_info_public = true then vagrant ssh-info would show the desired ip address
