I have a 1&1 hosting dedicated server (linux centos 5.x with plesk) (IP 74.208.98.x) and configured a nagiosxi virtual machine to run in NAT mode under VMware player 4.0. because i unable to use bridge mode where 1&1 security system sees MAC spoofing from Virtual machine and terminating my server to go OFFLINE.. only possiblity i can use is NAT mode.

I wanna know how i can communicate with nagiosXI VM from Internet. It would be better if i can able to map the nagiosxi internal IP with one of my subdomain. I do have a fixed static IP that i am thinking to use if possible such than NagiosXI VM wont rely on DHCP.

A little brief explanation would be greatful to me towards understanding the step i need to follow.

You need to provide more information! – Khaled Dec 6 '11 at 15:01
What is 1&1? Why does it force you to do NAT? This would be better accomplished with bridged networking. – Tim Dec 6 '11 at 15:24
I don't think you understand how NAT works. The best you can do in this situation is to forward ports from the host node and access via the host address. – BigChief Dec 6 '11 at 15:35
