Interface as a default gateway

[Dick Dowdell]

Amer,

I'm not sure I understand what you are trying to do or what your end
objective is.  It's hard to suggest solutions without understanding your
requirements.

You might try reading the VirtualBox User Manual
<https://www.virtualbox.org/manual/UserManual.html>.  Chapter 6
<https://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch06.html> goes into great detail about
setting up virtual networks.

Regards,
Dick Dowdell
