I'm trying to simulate a situation like: server-client PC. The server has certain software installed, to which I must connect from a client PC using TCP / IP.

I installed Windows Server 2012 on virtualbox. The server immediately picked up the Internet. I can connect to the "server" via remote desktop by ip address. But it is not possible to organize the connection of this software by prescribing the correct ip and port.

Where to look, what am I doing wrong?

The command must be given on both computers - on the host and on the guest. You need to check the availability of the computer with the and
commands . The availability of the TCP port on the computer is checked with the command . Most likely a firewall/firewall is blocking incoming connections. pingtracert
