17913,documentation indicates (incorrectly) that NAT VM can't communicate with host over network -> duplicate of #16912,tweevosha,,"https://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch06.html#networkingmodes
Table 6.1 ""VM ↔ Host"" column has a ""–"" symbol for NAT, which is misleading, as the guest VM is able to communicate over the network with the host, in fact bypassing the host's firewall (which, btw, seems like a security issue which should also be noted in the documentation, particular since NAT is the default); the guest VM, for example, can ping the host's IP. The host, however, can't ping the guest VM's IP.",defect,closed,documentation,VirtualBox 5.2.16,duplicate,,,all,all
