基于VMWare构建虚拟网络实验室的研究

Research of Building Virtual Network Laboratory Based on VMWare

在计算机网络实验室的实践教学中,常常遇到难以满足安装操作系统、组网、测试网络软件等需求的难题。介绍了VMWare的工作原理,分析它的优势和特性,提出基于VMWare建立虚拟网络实验室的思路。通过VMWare创建多个虚拟子系统,在其中安装Linux、Windows Server 2003等不同种类的操作系统。这些虚拟子系统通过多种方便、灵活的方式进行通讯,形成复杂和多变的测试环境,可以完成各种复杂的网络实验。VMWare在实践中使用方便、性能强大,能很好地满足计算机网络实验室的要求。

There are many such problems can not install the operation system,create network,test the network software in the practice teaching of computer network laboratory.Introduce the principle of VMWare,discuss its advantages and features,then support the way of building the virtual network laboratory based on VMWare.Creates multiple virtual sub systems and installes different operation system such as Linux,Windows Server 2003 and so on.These sub systems communicate by convenient and flexible methods,hence,can finish various complicated experiments in this environment.Result shows that VMWare is convenient and powerful,can meet the requirements of computer network laboratory.
