Step 4: Accessing a Remote Host


a. Pick a partner and change the network adapters on both of your virtual machines to bridged. To do this
you will need to release your cursor from the virtual machine, go to Machine > Settings and click
Network and change Attached to: NAT to Attached to: Bridged Adapter. Wait for the network to
reconnect. Now check your IP address by typing in the following command:
cisco@ubuntu:~$ ifconfig

Note: If you did not receive a new IP address, click the network icon ( ). Disconnect and reconnect
the wired connection.
b. Repeat the SSH and Telnet commands but this time instead of localhost use your partner’s IP address.
