f. The resulting configuration should have a virtual switch with no physical adapters. This is often referred
to as an isolated network or a ‘network bubble’.

o. p. It is now possible to compare the MAC Address of the interfaces: em0 and em1 (seen above) to the
Virtual Machine settings and determine which is WAN and which is LAN (and additional). In this example
we will be routing from the network ‘VM Network’ as WAN to the network ‘Routed” as the
routhed/firewalled Netork Bubble.
