Accessing a CentOS 7 server running on Virtual Box from outside

Recently while I am pursuing DevOps, I did CentOS 7 to practice Jenkins.
After the installation of  Tomcat, I wanted to access tomcat or other applications from outside of VM(my local machine).

These are the commands I executed in CentOS to access servers from outside of the VM.

1.      In the VM network settings, using 'Bridged Adapter'.
2.      Turn on the port of CenOS7: using the following command in terminal(for example port 8080): 
$ firewall-cmd --permanent --add-port=8080/tcp
$ firewall-cmd --reload

This solved my issue and I am able to access the servers/application URLs from outside of the CentOS


Happy learning ☺
