Configure network settings for VMs to enable internet access or create isolated environments. Options include NAT, Bridged, and Host-Only Networking.
6.2 Script Automation
Automate repetitive tasks using built-in scripting tools. Example: Create a script to schedule periodic VM snapshots.
6.3 Hardware Configuration
FR VM provides advanced options to simulate the hardware environment of a real computer, allowing you to tailor virtual machine hardware to specific needs. This feature is crucial for testing, debugging, or running specialized software. Below are the configurable options:
- CPU Virtualization: Simulate a specific number of CPU cores or processors. You can also enable advanced CPU features like virtualization extensions (VT-x/AMD-V) to support nested virtualization or high-performance workloads.
- BIOS/UEFI Firmware: Choose between BIOS or UEFI boot modes to replicate different system environments.
- Graphics Adapter: Simulate GPU capabilities by enabling virtual 3D acceleration or setting dedicated VRAM for graphics-intensive applications.
- Peripheral Emulation: Add virtual hardware peripherals, such as serial ports, parallel ports, or specific hardware controllers, to match the requirements of legacy or specialized software.
- Custom Hardware IDs: Simulate specific hardware identifiers (e.g., CPU model, motherboard vendor, network card MAC address) to create environments identical to specific physical systems.
- Clock/Timing Configuration: Adjust the virtual machine's clock behavior, synchronizing with the host system or simulating unique time offsets for testing purposes.
To configure hardware settings, open the "Settings" menu for your VM, navigate to the "Hardware" tab, and customize the options as needed. Ensure you save the changes before starting the VM. After configuring hardware, click "Save Settings" to apply changes. The VM will require a restart for the changes to take effect.
