Separate network for Parallels

Hello all...

I have our corporate network and a separate DSL line in my office. I would like the Mac to use the DSL line via Wi-Fi so I can get to personal email, etc., but use the corporate ethernet for Parallels for the speed and easier access to our corporate network. How would I go about this? Is there a way to configure the Mac to only use Wi-Fi, while setting Parallels to use Bridged networking tied to ethernet?

TIA,

Greg

 

Hi

Yes, it is possible. I expect that the following should do the trick.

For the first, the WiFi adapter should be made "primary" to direct all unknown traffic to WiFi. To do this, go to the "System Preferences" -> Network and click the iconf with gear (near to the + and -). Choose "Set service order" and move the WiFi adapter to the top.

Then just select Parallels VM to use "Bridged Networking" to the cabled-connection (probably, it is the en0 interface)
