Insisting on keeping the question on a site where the user base lacks the prerequisite knowledge and experience to answer it, merely because it is technically not off-topic, is not terribly productive. Also, "running a server" is not sufficient for ServerFault - there's a requirement of using "reasonable business information technology management practices". There is a majority view that VirtualBox doesn't fall in that category. | |

I do my best to write answers that will work not only for the original poster, but for anyone who comes later with a similar problem and finds that answer. I try to neither underestimate the intelligence nor overestimate the previous knowledge of the unknown persons who will at some point read the question and answer. | |

VirtualBox is, in my experience, not terribly flexible in what it allows the guest OS to do with its network interfaces - which is one of the reasons that it's got a limited user base here on ServerFault. If SuperUser cannot help you, perhaps a moderator at that place would be able to move the question to Unix/Linux instead - there are some extremely knowledgeable people there when it comes to systemd and other Linux internals. | |
