Choosing the Import Type

Choosing the right import type matters:

This option prevents conflicts by creating a new virtual machine ID.

File and Disk Locations

You can keep the defaults or choose custom locations:

• Use Store virtual hard disk to change the disk location

This step is particularly important for storage management in larger environments.

1. Right-click the virtual machine and select Connect
2. Sign in with:
   Username: admin
Password: Admin1234!
3. Enter the commands:

4. Choose option 1 for a static IP
5. Enter the address in CIDR format, for example: 192.168.1.100/24
