Attempting to grasp Windows Server while setting up the VM, but your server in VMware already has DHCP and static DNS configured. Your host machine isn’t receiving the IP from the VM. Need guidance on resolving this connection issue.

you might assume your host receives the dhcp address by adjusting its settings—like choosing host-only networking, setting up a new network, or enabling bridging. when using bridging, you need to turn off your local LAN's DHCP server. If you select host-only or a new network, you'll need to access the network editor and configure VMware's DHCP server on the host only.

You have AD DS set up and DNS and DHCP working, but your Windows Server VM in the Workstation VM isn't getting an IP configuration from your router. The separate network you created for learning is likely not properly configured for DHCP, or there might be a routing issue preventing the client from receiving the IP.

Check if your host machine and the server VM can talk to each other. From what OhYou_ mentioned, the problem likely lies in the VM's network adapter configuration. I recommend connecting the VM directly to the actual network and then testing connectivity from there. Consider assigning both the host and VM static IP addresses and see if communication works.
