That would mean, not allowing networking on the Mac would disconnect networking on the Windows vm. Well, my assumption and understanding is Parallels works like any other hosted virtual machine - it uses the underlying hardware for the actual connection and simulates hardware in the vm. Put the Parallels network adapter in Bridged mode, it will connect normally.Īt this point you have now learned how to do some advanced support on Mac OS, so what's your reason for not allowing the Mac on the network again? Give it a static IP that isn't on your normal internal WAN, set the VLAN to something other than the default, point DNS and gateway to non-existant IP addresses. Give the Mac a static IP address, doesn't even have to be a real network. Traffic for Parallels should still flow (I think) but OS X traffic will get blocked.Ī simpler way without dealing with the firewall would be to black hole the Mac's DNS servers and Gateway. Set the Parallels network adapter to Bridged mode. Deny all outbound traffic on the interface.
If you're really committed to your original plan, learn how to configure the OS X firewall from the command line. Or suck it up Wilder40, you're about to learn how to support a Mac on your network. If that's your organization's policy, and this is coming from a Mac fan who is a system administrator, tell the designer suck it up Buttercup, you're running Adobe Creative Cloud on a Windows computer.
