two networks in one VM/Linux

[HongfuH]

Hi everybody,
I am quite new to Paralles. I have a question about networking setting:
As Parallels says that up to 16 network interfaces are supported. By default, the network configure type is "Shared Network", and when I log in the guest OS(Suse Linux) and execute the command:
ifconfig

I saw that there was only one Ethernet:
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:1C:42:FE:5B:A3
inet addr:10.211.55.5 Bcast:10.211.55.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
inet6 addr: fe80::21c:42ff:fefe:5ba3/64 Scope:Link
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1

RX bytes:17961677 (17.1 Mb) TX bytes:773916 (755.7 Kb)
Interrupt:10 Base address:0x8200

lo Link encap:Local Loopback
inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0
inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host
UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1

TX packets:190 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:0
RX bytes:14938 (14.5 Kb) TX bytes:14938 (14.5 Kb)

How can I have two Ethernet within one guest OS? Thanks!

Select Hardware in the configuration panel of your VM, which already shows Network Adapter 1 present.
Hit the + button at the bottom, then select Network Adapter, and -- voilà -- you should now have Network Adapter 2.
After starting your VM, the 'ifconfig' command should now show eth1 in addition to eth0.

In regards to the issue may you please follow the easy steps below:

1. Start Parallels Desktop. Go to Virtual Machine configuration.
2. Now, click on the add button and add a new network adapter using shared networking.
