Abstract
The disclosed technology is generally directed to virtual machines. In one example of the technology, a network change from a first virtual network to a second virtual network is reconfigured for a first virtual machine that is executing on a first virtual machine host. The reconfiguring includes the following. In the first virtual machine host, a mapping change from the first virtual network to the second virtual network is configured by reprogramming drivers in the first virtual machine host for route mapping for the second virtual network. A Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) retrigger is caused without rebooting the first virtual machine. A configuration file is provided to the first virtual machine. The configuration file includes user-specific networking settings. The first virtual machine is reconfigured in accordance with the user-specific networking settings.
