    Hi,

    I am trying to use my Mac host as a gateway for my VMs so I can apply some firewall settings and routing from my host to my VMs traffic too. I have tried setting my host's vnic ip address as gateway in my VMs but I can't see any traffic coming through. What is the right way to set this?

    The only way I was able to do what I wanted is to set the VMs in bridged mode and use the IP for my Host's public NIC as the gateway. But that defeats the purpose of keeping my VMs behind the host for security.

    Thanks!
