The option was removed from GUI, but it is possible to open config-file and enable it. To do so
1) Start the /Application/Utilities/Terminal and execute command "sudo chmod a+rw /Library/Preferences/Parallels/network.desktop.xml" (without quotes, will ask for the password). This will allow all users to write to this file
2) Open in the TextEdit the above-mentioned file. Find in it the lines <HiddenAdapter>1</HiddenAdapter> and replace in these lines the numer 1 to 0 (to make it be <HiddenAdapter>0</HiddenAdapter>)
3) Optionally (it is recommended step) restore back permissions of the file by executing command "sudo chmod 622 /Library/Preferences/Parallels/network.desktop.xml"
4) PD6.0.11822 has a small bug, so one more esoteric step is required: Execute in terminal next two commands
sudo mkdir -p "/Library/Parallels/Parallels Service.app/Contents/PlugIns/Parallels Service.app/Contents/Kexts/10.6/"
sudo cp "/Library/Parallels/Parallels Service.app/Contents/Kexts/10.6/prl_vnic.kext/Contents/enX.plist" "/Library/Parallels/Parallels Service.app/Contents/PlugIns/Parallels Service.app/Contents/Kexts/10.6/"
5) Reboot the Mac or execute the command
sudo "/Library/Parallels/Parallels Service.app/Contents/PlugIns/Parallels Network Start.app/Contents/MacOS/prl_net_start" start
