Public network configuration doesn't work on OSX, El Capitan

Question

I'm using vagrant 1.7.4 on Mac OSX El Capitan 10.11.1. I configured public network like below.

config.vm.network "public_network", :bridge => 'en0: Wi-Fi (AirPort)', ip:"192.168.18.31"

But I found it doesn't works on my mac but work on PC. I'm using virtual box 5.0.8 r103449. Also I turned off firewall too.

Answer 1

Does the host network interface you want to route through exist on eth0 ? Running ifconfig on my Mac OS shows an adapter name matching pattern en0 .

You can use multiple interfaces in the bridge parameter if you would like to attempt to use many:

bridge: [
  "en1: Wi-Fi (AirPort)",
  "eth0: Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet Controller",
]

The first network adapter that exists and can successfully be bridge will be used.
