Ubuntu - vagrant access from another computer

I have recently learned how to setup a virtual machine using vagrant (virtualbox), and I know how to access it from a web browser via the local adress such as 192.168.x.x:9292 since 9292 is the default gate. But I would like to access the server from another computer locally.

My question is if I could access it via cmd as I connect to it on my own with the command vagrant ssh but from another computer via a command like vagrant ssh 192.168.x.x?

As far as I understand you have to use external programs or setup something inside the vagrant environment? Is there a simple way to access the server or is it password protected? If I setup a website I can access that for example from another local machine but can I access files on the server (from another computer)?

I found how to connect to another computer locally by entering the vagrant environment, vagrant up --> vagrant ssh. And connected to another computer by typing in ssh [email protected] where 192.168.x.x is the local address to the computer. The vagrant asks for a password and you type in the default password which I believe is vagrant and then you are connected to the other vagrant instance.

Assuming you have virtualbox provider for Vagrant you can achieve this by doing bridging the VBox network interface with Host.

Use this in Vagratfile (for public/private)

For Public

    Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
  config.vm.network "public_network",
    use_dhcp_assigned_default_route: true
end

For Private

Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
  config.vm.network "private_network", type: "dhcp"
end

above code will create IP in the range of Host network and using this you can access the file server from another machine.
