### How to setup a vmnet host network without DHCP | ||||||
|
||||||
You may need to disable the vmnet framework's DHCP to: | ||||||
|
||||||
- Create a host network where all VMs have static IPs. | ||||||
- Run a custom DHCP server on one VM to assign IPs to others on the same network. | ||||||
|
||||||
To disable the MacOS DHCP you must use `--vmnet-mode=host` and provide a `--vmnet-network-idenfitier` UUID. | ||||||

Suggested change
|
||||||
You **_must not_** provide `--vmnet-gateway`. That is the signal to Apple's vmnet.framework to enable MacOS DHCP. | ||||||
You can use `--vmnet-network-idenfitier=random` to get a random UUID assigned. | ||||||
