`` for more information on using Vagrant.

The comments in the Vagrantfile as well as documentation on Ready to `vagrant up` your first virtual environment! Please read For this guide we will be using a Kali Linux host system, however the commands that start with vagrant will be the same no matter what host is being used: :~/vagrant$ vagrant init kalilinux/rollingĪ `Vagrantfile` has been placed in this directory. We must be in a command line and create a new folder/directory that is empty. Now that we have our hypervisor and Vagrant installed, we can pull our first configuration file. If we are using Kali Linux, there is already documentation we can follow. Otherwise, we can look for our distribution on the Linux Hosts page. If we are on Windows or macOS we can click the respective download link and complete setup. For the purposes of this guide we will download the free VirtualBox. Otherwise, we should follow the instructions on Vagrant’s download page.

The Kali Vagrant file supports two, VirtualBox and VMware. Vagrant itself, and a supported hyper-visor. In order to properly use Vagrant we need two things. We will look at what the default configuration file is doing, but much more than that is beyond the scope of this page. Vagrant is, according to their website, “a tool for building and managing virtual machine environments in a single workflow.” This is all controlled through a single configuration file that has a large amount of configurations to tweak the virtual machine (VM) to your needs.
