This got me on one node of my file server cluster. “Somehow” (I really don’t know how it happened), the gateway IP was blanked and our branch office (connected via VPLS & 2 routers) couldn’t touch it. Entered Gateway & bam!

Is it the same as the other machines on your subnet? On Wed, Feb 1, 2012 at 11:34 AM, Dave Vantine <[email protected]> wrote: I am a VMware newbie and have a ESXi host running on my local subnet. I am able to ping this machine by IP and can access this machine with the Vsphere client to manage the guest on this subnet. I want to give access to the host to an administrator located at our branch office on a different subnet. We have a site to site vpn and all the other machines on the two subnet are pingable except for the ESXi host. When you try to ping the host or run a Vsphere client from the branch subnet there is no response. I know for certain that there is nothing blocking the traffic between the subnets so there must be something within the ESXi host that is only allowing IP's on the local subnet to communicate with it. Any idea on how I can get the Vsphere client on the remote networ to be able to connect? -- Thanks In Advance Dave Vantine ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to [email protected] with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to [email protected] with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin Information Technology Manager Virginia Opera Association E-Mail: [email protected] Phone: (757) 213-4548 (direct line) {+} Tickets and Subscriptions On Sale Now!
