#6540 closed defect
provided DHCP information wrong after update of network config on host during runtime — at Version 1
Reported by: | Sandro Steger | Owned by: | |
---|---|---|---|
Component: | network/NAT | Version: | VirtualBox 3.1.6 |
Keywords: | DHCP | Cc: | |
Guest type: | Linux | Host type: | Windows |
Description (last modified by )
The nameservers provided through the DHCP-Server of VirtualBox don't update if the host DNS configuration changes during runtime of the guest.
In other words: On startup the guest gets the current nameservers as expected. Now the nameservers on the host change (after startup of the guest). If I attempt to update the nameservers using dhclient it will receive the old nameservers.
Such changes on the host might occur when a VPN connection is established, to name one example.
The closure and reopening of the guest refreshes the data. Rebooting doesn't suffice.

You are talking about a NAT interface, correct?
