In today's edition of “Insight's Inbox” we answer a reader's question on how to get started with VMware Workstation.
Reader Question:
I'm new to PLC programming and your article about VMware has peaked my interest.
Do you have any additional information about setting up VMware, such as going through the actual setup process?
Insight's Answer:
First, thank you for reading our article on Virtualization.
We do in fact have several videos on setting up and using VMware, which I'll list below:
- How to get VMware Workstation
- Installing VMware Workstation
- Opening Workstation for the first time
- Creating a Windows XP Virtual Machine in VMware Workstation
- Navigating VMware Workstation
- Updating VMware Workstation
- Installing VMware Tools
- Enable Folder Sharing in VMware Workstation
- VMware Workstation Snapshots

This is good. Next would be nice to touch on the network setup (Bridge, NAT, Static IP for Host and VM, etc.) to work with RSLinx classic and RSLinx enterprise
Thanks for the feedback Saumil,
