Cloud networks can be used for connections from a local VM to a subnet on a remote Oracle Cloud Infrastructure instance. See Section 6.11.3, “Cloud Networks Tab” for details of how to create and configure a cloud network using the Network Manager tool in VirtualBox Manager.
To enable a cloud network interface for a virtual machine, do either of the following:
Go to the Network page in the virtual machine's Settings dialog and select an Adapter tab. Ensure that the Enable Network Adapter check box is selected and choose Cloud Network for the Attached To field.
On the command line, use VBoxManage modifyvm
vmname
--nicx cloud. See
Section 8.10, “VBoxManage modifyvm”.
