Vagrant.configure(2) do |config| # Any other Vagrant 2.x config settings you want here config.vm.define '__YOUR_BOX_NAME_HERE__' # Any other Vagrant 2.x config settings you want here config.vm.provider "virtualbox" do |vb| # Any of your other virtualbox modifications vb.name = "__YOUR_BOX_NAME_HERE__" # Any other virtualbox modifications here end # Any other Vagrant 2.x config settings you want here config.vm.hostname = "__YOUR_BOX_NAME_HERE__" # Any other Vagrant 2.x config settings you want here
