Thanks so much for taking the time to answer! I still need a little help though. I am using a vm for this and have assigned an ipv4 address, subnet mask, and default gateway for my network. I have tried assigning the address using the snippet you sent and there was no error, but it did not fix the problem either. I'm happy to know the root of my problem now though!oparry– oparry2022-02-16 17:00:35 +00:00Commented Feb 16, 2022 at 17:00

Which VM do you use, e.g. VWware, VirtualBox, QEMU? In general you do have a few options on how to connect your VM to your host and the network in general. The simplest approach is to have your VM guest being added to your host network. E.g. on VMware this is called 'bridged networking'. Following article gives you some insight to the different modes: docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-Workstation-Pro/16.0/… That setting would provide your VM access to the DHCP of your physical LAN which is probably the step you are missing.mutoroglin– mutoroglin2022-02-17 08:08:06 +00:00Commented Feb 17, 2022 at 8:08

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. shell-script), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
