mvdv78 Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 Hello, Just watched Hak5 video 1819: Building a Home Lab Virtual Server Quick and Dirty. For a few month now i'm running Vmware instead of Xenserver with serveral vm's. Intel Nuc are great for home lab environment but there is 1 disadvantage, there is only 1 nic available. I would like to great 2 seperate networks, so I need 1 extra nic. I've searched the Internet but could not find a good soilution. I'm using the Intel NUC5I5RYK and use the M.2 Slot for the storage database (vm's). Is there a solution with the use of USB 3.0 to Gigabit Ethernet NIC Network Adapter? I have no problem to use an other virtualization platform to solve this problem. It's important that I can run vm's with linux and windows. Hope to read some great solutions :) Kind regards, Happy Intel Nuc user. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooper Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 In what way does the USB3 to Gigabit adapter not suffice? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cooper Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 It's not a matter of starting the guest OS and inserting the USB device so the virtual can detect it and have fun with it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
