Network Configuration Query!

nmagner

I've installed Windows Server 2008 R2 in my home "virtual" test environment. I have AD DS, integrated DNS installed. My configuration as follows:
VMware: Windows Server 2008 R2 - Network adapter connection: Bridged
DC1: IPv4 Configuration
IP: BLANK - Subnet Mask: BLANK - Default Gateway: BLANK. Preferred DNS is configured to 127.0.0.1 and Alernative DNS to 192.168.0.1.
Is DC1 configuration correct?
What IPv4 Configuration will I put in for DC2 so it points at DC1?

How will DC2 communicate with DC1 when DC1 has no IP address? You need to have at least an IP address and subnet mask. If your home network uses 192.168.0.*, then the third octet should be something other than 0, if you want to route traffic between your lab network and the Internet.
