Managing Network Adapters on the Parallels Server

Network adapters installed on the Parallels server are used to provide virtual machines and Containers with access to each other and to external networks. During the installation, Parallels Server Bare Metal registers all physical and VLAN network adapters available on the server. In addition to that, it creates a number of virtual network adapters on the server. Once Parallels Server Bare Metal has been successfully installed, you can perform the following operations on network adapters:

• List the adapters currently available on the server.
• Create new VLAN adapters on the server.
• Connect adapters to Virtual Networks on the server.

  Note: For more information on Virtual Networks, refer to Managing Virtual Networks .

These operations are described in the following subsections in detail.
