Description: Bridged Networking is a network mode that allows virtual machines to connect to the same network as the physical host. This means that virtual machines can communicate directly with other devices on the local network, as if they were part of the same network infrastructure. This type of configuration is especially useful for developers and system administrators who need their development environments to behave similarly to production environments. The Bridged Networking allows virtual machines to obtain IP addresses directly from the local network’s DHCP server, facilitating integration and testing of applications under conditions that simulate the real environment. Additionally, being on the same network allows for more effective connectivity and performance testing, resulting in a more agile and efficient workflow. This network mode is one of the most valued features of virtualization tools, as it provides flexibility and control over the network configuration of virtual machines, enabling developers to work more collaboratively and effectively on projects that require multiple testing environments.
