Network card error while creating Solars 11 VM on hyper-v - virtual-machine

I am trying to create Solaris 11 VM on hyper-v.
While installing Solaris I get following message:
No Network interface found , addition driver may be needed.
When installation is done , My IP is not configured in machine.
I found one link where same problem is mention but solution is not clear to me.

Any help is much appreciated.Thanks

You will need to open up VMWare Workstation, or your VMware app, Go to Settings for your VM, and look for "Network Adapter".
The default is NAT. If that doesn't work, try bridged, or cycle through the options to see if any are supported.
If that doesn't work, you may need to add a new network device. In that case, you will need to do this:
Select Window > Virtual Machine Library.
Select a virtual machine in the Virtual Machine Library window and click Settings.
Click Add Device.
Click Network Adapter.
Click Add.

vmware workstation Player No internet connection

I'm using vmware workstation 14 Player, there is no option for Virtual Network Editor in VMPlayer. There are several sites which are saying to open the network editor. As I could not find network editor I'm using VM Player 14. Please view the screenshot for better understating.
Here you can see there is no option for network editor and when I click edit virtual machine setting I get the following Box
Here you can see I've selected NAT, but still internet is not working inside VMware. If anyone could help with this.
I was following this video but https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H2j3nyl4muQ
but here the person is usning VMware and not the vmware workstation player.
Inside preferences I see the following but nothing related to network settings etc
Inside my virtual machine which is a Windows Server 2012 the network adapter shows the following
To do what the video follows up is much better to do it in VirtualBox. Configuring your own NAT is quite easily done, whereas in new VmWare I still have not found a way to do it.
Check this to understand better how to do it.

no internet on windows phone 8 emulator

I have installed windows phone 8 SDK and tried running a simple app which embeds a WebBrowser on a page. When I try to run the app in emulator the emulator does not get internet connection. It displays an error message saying "You don't have permission to modify internal Hyper-V network adapter settings required to run the emulator". Im sure my login has admin permissions. My machine is 64bit, hyper v is enabled and Hyper v manager is running, hardware virtualization is enabled in the BIOS settings, DHCP is enabled and its connected to a wired network. I have checked all the system requirements. What ever I do it keeps on giving the same error message. I setup everything in a different machine and tried running the app in that machine. The same error message is displayed in the that machine also. Can anyone tell me how to get it working.
DHCP is enabled and its connected to a wired network
Can you run ipconfig /all on your host machine and post it here please?
seems you have problem with your DHCP or maybe multiple DHCP and conflict.
You need to add your user account as a member of the "Hyper-V Administrators" group on the machine.
Detailed steps:
Hit Windows key + Q and search for "local users and groups". Change the search scope to "Settings". Click "Edit local users and groups".
Expand the "Groups" section. Right-click on "Hyper-V Administrators" and select "Add to group".
Add your user account.
Some connection tools on the host can have negative effects when used with the emulator; I found having cisco VPN client installed on the host prevented the emulator from finding the internet. Other VPN clients may have similar side-effects. I simply uninstalled cisco (the inbuilt windows VPN is fine for what I need) and it worked perfectly.
I've also seen problems where it won't find the internet after the host has been suspended / resumed. In that scenario, it turned out to be bad network drivers. I installed a dedicated Intel NIC (rather than the on-board NIC on the motherboard) - problem solved.
Basically, Hyper-V is a bit fussy.
try refreshing the hyper-v by unchecking and then checking it again,this worked for me.
Steps:
1.control panel>>programs>>Programs and features>>turn windows features on and off>>hyper-v
2.uncheck it and restart the pc.
3.again go to control panel an check hyper-v and restart the pc again.
the try to run the emulator,should work..
another possible reason is that you did not start vs2013 as admin

the windows phone emulator wasn't able to create the virtual machine

I just installed it on my windows 8. It's NOT running on a VM but is running at a macbook with bootcamp.
When I try to emulate my app, I get this first error:
But then I click "Retry" and give the permission, so it runs normally.
But then, when the windows phone window appears, I get a "loading" screen and then this error appears:
Just for better tagging the post I will write the error: "something happened while creating a switch: Xde couldn't find an IPv4 adress for the host machine"
You must enable virtualization in BIOS and go to Control Panel->Programs->Turn Windows features on or off and choose Hyper-V.
I had this problem.
1- Open the Control Panel.
2- Then programs.
3- Turn Windows features on or off.
4- Further selection for hyper-v.
5- Restart the computer.
6- Repeat the previous steps but put the selection on hyper-v.
7- Restart the computer.
Enjoy ^_^
Not sure if you got to the solution, but I just had the same situation. It turns out that older VPN clients may have compatibility problems with Windows 8. I solved the issue by uninstalling VPN client (and also making sure Hyper-V was enabled).

Hyper-V kills internet connection when bridging

I am using Hyper-V for the first time (running Windows 8). When I create a new virtual network switch, external, it bridges the VMs network adapter with the WiFi - and that for some reason kills the WiFi's internet connection. Why, and what could I be doing wrong?
Thanks,
A.
If you have VirtualBoxinstalled, check if any of the Hyper-V virtual adapters/bridge connection has the VirtualBox Bridged Networking Driver ticked in the connection properties. If they do, simply untick this service where it is present and this should fix it up for you. No need to uninstall VirtualBox.
I had a static ip-address in my ethernet adapter.
Removed the static entry.
Made my external virtual switch.
Had the extra vEthernet adapter, made my static entries (ip-address, dns-server) in this adapter.
Everything is working fine now.

I had the same problem, it takes a couple of seconds to setup the connection again. Check this tutorial: https://superuser.com/questions/469806/windows-8-hyper-v-how-to-give-vm-internet-access
I just ran into the same problem, losing the internet connection when creating the virtual switch. Uninstalling VirtualBox which I had installed at the same time fixed the problem for me (just disabling the VBox adapters was not enough), so they seem to be unable to happily coexist.
I ran into the same problem recently when creating an external switch in Hyper-V. Long story short, every time an external switch was created, it would bring my ethernet connection down on my host laptop. I had wifi connection option also but disabled it to just strictly troubleshoot the ethernet network adapter.
I brought down the VM, once turned off, deleted the external network adapter from hyper V virtual switch manager. On the host machine, disabled and re-enabled the network adapter from within network connections (ethernet). Once connected, I brought the VM back online FIRST, then created the external switch second which connected with no issues. Verified I was able to access outside world aka internet on both host and VM.
Maybe you unchecked by accident the Allow management OS to share this network adapter setting that is enabled by default. Disabling this setting will leave your hypervisor OS without network connectivity.
I was able to fix such an issue by disabling Internet sharing on the wireless adapter, creating an Internal virtual switch in Hyper-V first, then disabling VMWare bridge on all involved interfaces, then I made a bridge in Network sharing center by selecting my internal switch and Wi-Fi adapter and after that I was able to select external network in Virtual switch manager in Hyper-V
I ran into the same problem too. I don't know for sure, but after trying all of the solutions above and any others I could find, I renamed my virtual switch to 'realtek' (the type of network card I have installed) instead of taking the default name that I think was 'new virtual switch'. Something else I did may have solved the problem (I modified everything I could find for two days), but I think renaming it is what finally gave me internet access to the vm.

Can't set Network Adapter for Hyper-V machine

I have a windows 2008 Server with hyper-v enabled. I can't seem to load any network adapter into the virtual machine, it always says "Load Failed". Im really not sure what I'm doing wrong, or where to start.
Try to remove your network cards and re-connect them, I would also try to find updated drivers.
What type of card is it, It may not be supported.
Try adding a new virtual switch and select that one instead.
Here is how: http://www.eightforums.com/tutorials/19359-hyper-v-virtual-switch-manager.html
I write this just in case it can help someone, I had a similar problem, I wasn't able to see my network adapters in my windows server 2008 hyper-v machine, so the problem was the external switch couldn't be a normal one it has to be legacy external switch, so the steps I followed to resolve this were:
1- Create vm with windows server 2008 and not connected switch.
2- Goes to settings in my virtual machine an remove the not connected network adapter.
3- In settings add hardware - add legacy network adapter and connect to the external switch I had created.
And that's all. It should work like this.
