How to Clone a VirtualBox Virtual Machine : In this video, we learn how to clone an existing guest on VirtualBox. We learn how to give the clone a unique MAC address and a unique IP address. We learn what an IP is, why it is important, and how to manage IP addresses on an Ubuntu 24.04LTS Server. We learn how to identify a static IP address configuration and a dynamic IP address configuration. Then we learned how to change the static IP from one address to another. We learn the Linux commands “ip a”, “ifconfig” and learn a bit about the Linux editor vi. And finally, we learn it is a good practice to back up a configuration file before we modify it.
