Install VirtualBox

Users of Oracle Linux 5, 6 and 7 can use the public yum  repository and enable the el5_addons (OEL5), the ol6_addons (OL6) or the ol7_addons (OL7). If a public-yum repo file already exists in /etc/yum.repos.d, do not overwrite it but just enable the addons! After that, do

yum install VirtualBox-5.1

See following page for more detailes: https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads

Check and Configure the Host-only Network Configuration

If you already had VirtualBox installed, check that you have a Host-only network configured on the host. If this is a fresh install of VirtualBox, check that the Host-only network adapter is configured as below.

Use the Oracle VM VirtualBox Manager GUI, Select File --> Preferences, then in the VirtualBox - Settings window, select Network. In the Network pane, select the Host-only Networks tab and check you have an entry named vboxnet0. If not, click the add host-only network button to add it.
