All network operations are allowed within the host system. The other systems on the network can't communicate with the VMs. The private network is created using a virtual network adapter that is visible to the host operating system. In private or host-only networking, a network connection is created between the host system and the VMs on the host system. To use UDP port, add the following definition in your Vagrantfile: config.vm.network "forwarded_port", guest: 80, host: 8080, auto_correct: true protocol: "udp" You can, however, use UDP protocol if you want to forward UDP packets. Change network protocolīy default, Vagrant uses TCP protocol for port forwarding. Restart the Vagrant machine to take effect the changes: 1.2. You can also choose your own custom range by defining the following line in the Vagrantfile like below. config.vm.network "forwarded_port", guest: 80, host: 8080, auto_correct: trueīy default, Vagrant will choose auto-correction port between port 2200 and port 2250 range. To enable auto-correction, add an extra option auto_correct: true in the port forwarding definition in your Vagrantfile. If it find a port is collided with another port, it will auto-correct it by using any other unused port for you. Vagrant is also smart-enough to find and correct port collision automatically. If the port is already being used by another application, Vagrant will report it in the output, so you can either free up the port or use another port. No worries! Vagrant has built-in support for detecting port collisions. You may unknowingly forward an already used port. What if some other application is currently using the port 8080? Port collision happens when running multiple VMs. In other words, the traffic sent to port 8080 is actually forwarded to port 80 on the guest machine. In our previous example, we forwarded the port 80 from guest to port 8080 in host. What if the port 8080 is being used by another application? Apache test page) is being served from the guest virtual machine and all actual network data is being sent to the guest. Apache webserver test pageĮven though we access the web server with URL in the host system, it is not served from the local webserver. You will see the Apache test page on your browser. Now open the web browser in your host system and navigate to address from your browser. Start Apache service: $ sudo systemctl enable -now httpd If it is RHEL-based system, run this: $ sudo yum install httpd If the VM is Deb-based, run: $ sudo apt install apache2 Now SSH in to the guest machine with command: $ vagrant ssh You can also destroy the VM and re-run it with updated Vagrantfile: $ vagrant destroy $ vagrant up => default: Rsyncing folder: /home/sk/myvagrants/ => /vagrant => default: Creating shared folders metadata… => default: Waiting for SSH to become available… => default: Waiting for domain to get an IP address… You will see the port forwarding is configured in the output: => default: Halting domain… Now restart the Vagrant machine with the updated Vagrantfile: $ vagrant reload -provision nfigure("2") do |config|Ĭonfig.vm.network "forwarded_port", guest: 80, host: 8080 In this example, I am forwarding port 80 in the guest to port 8080 in the host. Uncomment it and define what ports to forward where. # config.vm.network "forwarded_port", guest: 80, host: 8080 Go to your Vagrant project directory and open Vagrantfile in your favourite editor.įind the following line: nfigure("2") do |config| The port forwarding can be configured in the "Vagrantfile". For example, if you forwarded port 80 in the guest machine to port 8080 on the host machine, you can then access the webserver by navigating to on your host machine. You can also forward a specific port of your choice. Vagrant automatically handles this port forwarding process without any user intervention. When we access a VM via SSH, Vagrant forwards port 22 from the guest machine to an open port in the host machine. By default, we can access Vagrant VMs via ssh using vagrant ssh command.
