I am trying to work with centOS 7 which I installed on VMware workstation.

But it doesn't have internet connection:

$ ping 8.8.8.8
connect: Network is unreachable

$ ping www.google.com
ping: www.google.com: Name or service not known

I checked NAT in my virtual machine settings and it is the output of ifconfig command:

ens33: flags=4099<UP,BROADCAST,MULTICAST>  mtu 1500
        ether 00:0c:29:7a:53:87  txqueuelen 1000  (Ethernet)

You do not have IP address assigned to your network interface "ens33".

Type "dhclient" in terminal, that should fix the issue, if it does not work, please print output of command "ip addr" from terminal

You should check your Virtual Machine network config in order to be sure the network adapter is properly mapped. The best way in my opinion is not to NAT, but bridge the adapter to the phisical host apadter. Then your router dhcp server will provide a correct IP to your Centos virtual machine. Anyway you would need to check the Centos network configuration to see if the ip was assigned properly as long as it is the default gateway and DNS server.
