In the vSphere Web Client browse to your VM and edit the settings. вЂ‹The next step is to remove the current virtual NIC from the virtual machine and add a new NIC of the type VMXNET3.ДЇor Windows Server 2003 it is better to power off the VM when removing the NIC, for later versions of Windows Server it is possible to remove the NIC while the VM is in a power on state. Remove the current NIC from the VM and add the VMXNET3-adapter This problem is described in more detail in a VMware Knowledge base article: Networking Error: IP address already assigned to another adapterВ (1179)Д«ut as I mentioned before: If you first remove the current NIC then you will not have this problem. The error message is:В The IP addressВ В you have entered for this network adapter is already assigned to another adapter. When you don'tВ first remove the current adapter and use the IP-address for the new adapter this is the message you would see to inform you about the possible future problem: Next right-click the Intel adapter and from the menu select Uninstall. To remove the adapter open Device Manager and expand the Network adapters category.

But be aware that the new vmxnet3-adapter will have a new MAC address so it will not get the same address from your DHCP-server. If it is configured with DHCP then it doesn't matter. If you don't then the adapter's configuration will still be in the Windows-configuration and might conflict with your future networking configuration.ДЇirst make a note of the current IP-configuration so you can use that same configuration for the new adapter. The best approach is to first remove theВ NICВ that is currently in the virtual machine. Remove the currentВ NICВ from Windows first Therefor I suggest that you perform the tasks described here in your master virtual machine that will become your template. You could do this in all your virtual machines after installing Windows but you probably are going to use a template to deploy Windows-servers. Once the virtual machine is finished and the OS is installed fully you can switch from the E1000 to the VMXNET adapter.

So you might ask why this adapter is not chosen by default for the supported operating systems?В The reason is that a default OS installation discВ for Windows (and also for other operating systems) does not contain the driver for this VMware VMXNET adapter.В Therefor it defaults to the Intel E1000В NIC that is supported by all operating systems. Performance Evaluation of VMXNET3В Virtual Network Device Performance Best Practices for VMware vSphereВ® 5.5 More information about choosing the right adapter, supported operating systems and the performance benefits of this adapter can be found in these locations:Д¬hoosing a network adapter for your virtual machineВ (1001805)В (also lists OS support for VMXNET3) There is however an adapter that will give you a better performance, which is the VMwareВ VMXNET3В adapter. For Windows the default adapter type is the Intel E1000.

Depending on the operating system you install it will select a default adapter when you create a VM. VMware offers several types of virtual network adapters that you can add to your virtual machines.
