• VM management host cannot ping gateway or switch

  Hello

  
  We have a server Esx 5.0 with 3 vm on it. When I try to ping the management network of vm for my pc that I do not get an answer too trying to ping from the vmn console I can not ping to the gateway, but I can ping dns. However, I can rdp in vm servers and the ping to the gateway of each server, as well as newspapers in vsphere. We have a system with 2 voip VLAN, the other data and another for voice. Hosts and servers are all on the same cisco switch.

  -cannot ping 192.168.1.1 a.3 or any pc

  -can ping 192.168.1.10

  It sounds like a switch problem but do not know how to fix it. The switch is a switch of cisco small business pro 8 ports

  Make sure that your routing has L3 to a defined network to get traffic to your host (192.168.1.0/24) network to any network it seeks to achieve. You did not show what the subnet for the PCs are so I'm not sure that the network is.

  Regarding the gateway ping, make sure that the echo ICMP message is enabled by the firewall so that ping responses can go to the host. If you still cannot ping the gateway with that on, there may be a larger problem with your connectivity.

• The host cannot ping

  Hello

  I can't reach my host. What could be the problem?

  I am using Vmware Server 2.0.1 Build 156745

  Host: Windows XP Professional sp2

  IP:192.168.146.1 host (vmnet1)

  Hardware: Computer laptop Dell 630

  Comments cannot ping the host

  Host cannot ping the prompt

  I tried to configure the nat and the host only to connect. Nat could also be able to reach the external pages.

  I appreciate any ideas

  Is the fixed prompt on DHCP or IP?

  What network cards do you have on the host and bridged (vmnetcfg.exe run as administrator)?

  Is the physical card on the guest living/connected - sometimes to the life of a card NETWORK disconnected will no connectivity in the guest?

  Have you recently changed the VMware network in the host? If so, you will need to restart the VMware services or reboot the host.

  Is there a firewall clutter it?

  Is the card NETWORK connected to the prompt - it shouldn't be a red cross on the network icon in the list of the material in the center of the console pane when the virtual machine is selected in the left pane?

  The MAC address or virtual and physical adapters in the host and the single guest, that is not duplicated?

  If all this pans, can be helpful to remove the NETWORK card in the prompt and add a. Also, what type of NETWORK adapter is it in the guest - 'flexible' or 'e1000 '? Should be 'flexible' for Linux - post (tie) the .vmx doubt customers.

• Install the new - cannot ping configured gateway or DNS servers

  Hi all

  My old VMWare ESXi 3.5 OS got corrupted I did a fresh install of VMWare ESXi 4. It installed ok and I was able to configure everything successfully, but when I run the network test it is impossible to ping anything whatsoever, but it's own IP address.

  I have another machine on the same subnet with the same exact configuration (except for the hostname and IP static) settings and it works properly without any problem.

  I already checked the cable at the back and the green light is on and the flashing. I tried to restart the machine after having placed in the configuration information and settings remained at what I put in, but I still get the same result. The network test is a failure.

  Does anyone have any suggestions as to what could be the cause of this?

  How do you have installed and configured network adapters?  Have you tried swapping the cables between network cards?

  Also, do you have the trunks VLAN configured on the switch?  It is possible, that you must specify a trunk VLAN for the management network to do the work.  That would probably have already been configured on your host 3.5 but is not automatically detected and added.

• AnyConnect client cannot ping gateway

  I'm currently implementing anyconnect for some users in our Organization. Once the clients connect to the VPN via. AnyConnect, they cannot access anything whatsoever, including their default gateway (via ping). I'm not sure what I did wrong, but it's a quick fix, a person can report to me. It's a little frustrating because I had this lab work, but can not see the obvious errors.

  A few things to look at. Firstly, interface e0/1 is the stop of the config above for connecting clients will not be able to achieve the devices on the "inside" of the SAA. Second, you don't have NAT 0 rules configured to exempt the return of LAN or DMZ traffic to the client IP pool.

• No internet in guest Linux bridge - cannot ping gateway

  Hi all

  I searched high and low, but I can't understand this. I am running VMware Player 5 with Debian 7 64-bit Windows 7 64 - bit host and guest OS.

  I can access the internet using NAT, but I would like to have connect like bridge.

  I see only one network adapter in adapters to set up and it's the right one, one I use to connect to the internet. I confirmed that the adapter has protocol active bridge. I tried ticking the "Physical replicate network connection", but he did nothing.

  What I can do:

  I can see my router's virtual machine and assign a local ip address without problems.

  I can't SSH into the guest OS (Debian).

  I can ping the host (my Win 7 machine) and the router (gateway/DNS)

  I do nslookup (e.g. nslookup google.com)

  What I can not do:

  I can't access the internet. I can't ping google.com (by name or IP address) or download the packages.

  Help, please.

  It turns out it was my antivirus, Bitdefender Internet Security 2013, which was blocking the connection of the virtual machine.

  VMware Player was to solve what I had to put the network adapter address as Trusted and Stealth mode disabled.

• Cannot ping Lan devices in Vlan

  Hello

  I looked for a solution to this for the week without success. I came across a Cisco C3560, which is used because of its ability of poe to power some Deskphones Voip. While the works of great poe, machines connected to the switch can only communicate with each other and don't can't ping or otherwise access any device connected directly to the router of the network.

  The Cisco switch is configured with a vlan and a default gateway, but nothing comes out by behind the switch. On connected devices can ping by default gateway (192.168.0.1 - a tp-link router), receive a lease dhcp from the router said successfully and can connect to the internet, but on the local network, nothing works. (unable to connect to the printer connetced directly to the router or other computers connected directly to the router.

  Any advice? I am new to cisco switches, don't know what I'm doing here. I'm just trying to get devices that are connected directly to the switch to communicate with devices connected directly to the router.

  Your question

  What is the configuration of the router as a switch which seems to work correctly you're saying and I configured its doing its job, don't forget you said that you cannot route no between the router and the router switch should take care of this, whats the vlan ports on the router are on is - what the same subnet do they get an ip address in the same subnet off dhcp as devices of switching, if they do, and you cannot ping them to the same subnet theres something upward on the side of the router it would treat for layer 3 routing ip traffic

  the ping to the router devices connected to the cisco switch and can the device on the router cannot ping devices switches

  If you move a device out of the router and attach it to the doe sit switch still work ok, reach the talk of the internet to other devices on the switch?

  As there is a layer 2 switch you don't need this command you have your entry door you can remove it.. .IP default-network 192.168.0.0

• DLR Uplink and GSS internal transit same VXLAN cannot ping each other.

  Start with, I run NSX 6.2.2 firewall rules on 'allow all' to 'all' to 'all' "all protocols", in other words disabled...

  I have a VXLAN 5000 transit, with an uplink DLR interface attached to it, and an internal interface GSS in the appendix in which neither of the parties can ping to another. So for troubleshooting, I added 2 VM Windows attached to the same transit VXLAN 5000, a virtual machine is on ESXi host 1 and the other is on host ESXi 4. They can fine ping each other, and two virtual machines can ping both the uplink of DLR and internal interfaces of the GSS.

  This question has puzzled me because it makes no sense, why the DLR and the GSS cannot ping each other but 2 virtual machines that VXLAN can ping all adjacent devices. I can even put bridges on those virtual machines with a rule NAT on the GSS and those virtual machines can get internet through the GSS, but no matter what I try, the DLR cannot ping the GSS, and the GSS cannot ping DLR...

  I need to define a static route between the GSS DLR <>- but if I can't even answer ping interfaces I'm dead in the water.

  If I install virtual machines in a network LAN DLR interface such as WebApp and test for example database, I can ping throughout the DLR together until the IP DLR Uplink, but then he cannot ping the GSS internal.

  Does anyone have suggestions for troubleshooting? Test commands that I can run? I tried many things and then lots of websites with the troubleshooting steps. Everything seems fine, all green checks in the installation steps... All roads, MACs, ARP tables appear as expected when I run test on host computers commands and controllers. I don't know what is the cause except for a bug in the code...

  All ideas are welcome... Thank you

  UPDATE:

  Yes, so it has need of a static NAT rule on the GSS...

  In my environment, I added a SNAT rule on adapter: ESG_Uplink with 0.0.0.0/24 CBC-translation dst: 1.1.1.101 (my lab ESG IP Uplink).

  It works now... VM tenant box connected to WebApp portgroup (192.168.13.115) can now ping gateway DLR, through routing OSPF to the GSS and ping on physical bridge of...

  I learned a lot on this one... I'm not going to worry about why the static route, I tried first post didn't work, since I was the OSPF running instead (which is more appropriate for my laboratory for realistic scenario anyway), and the Foundation will now suffice to build the rest of this POC vRA / vRO lab...

  Thank you in any case, sometimes it's just nice to have someone to listen.

• Site to site between ASA 8.2 VPN, cannot ping

  Two 8.2 ASA is configured with a VPN tunnel from site to site, as shown in the diagram:

  

  Here is my setup for both.

  Clients on the inside network to the ASA cannot ping inside, network clients, else the ASA. Why not?

  When the rattling from inside network SALMONARM inside network of KAMLOOPS, the following debug logs can be seen on SALMONARM:

  Each attempt to ping responds with "Request timed out" on the computer of ping.

  Why clients cannot mutually ping on the VPN tunnel?

  Hello

  Create a NAT0 ACL at both ends.

  ex: 10.30.0.0 ip access-list extended SHEEP 255.255.0.0 allow 10.45.0.0 255.255.0.0

• Nested Hyper-V VM cannot ping the default gateway

  Hello

  At first, I have to say that I don't consider myself an expert produced a VMware.

  I've been struggling with my test environment nested for a while and finally decided to get help (I hope) of pros.

  Environment looks like this:

  • Physical VMware ESXi 5.1.0 ("Promiscuous" mode enabled for the vSwitch)
    • Couple of virtual machines, one of them being Hyper-V (Windows Server 2012 R2) server that is configured for nested virtualization - 10.106.5.27
      • On the Hyper-V server, I have a VM in Windows Server 2012 R2 - 10.106.5.28

  Hyper-V server has a NETWORK card and full network connectivity (internal and external: Internet) and in the Hyper-V Manager, a virtual switch is configured in external mode.

  VM is connected to this virtual switch via a virtual network adapter. It has public static IP assigned with mask subnet, default gateway, and DNS even as a Hyper-V host. I ping times by IP and DNS name of the host of VM and vice versa. I cannot ping other resources of the virtual machine as the default gateway and DNS ("request timed") servers out. State of the network in the network and sharing Center is VM:

  • unidentified network
  • Public network
  • type of access: no internet access

  When I run the tool for troubleshooting problems on VM, he says "the default gateway is not available". As I said I can not ping.

  I think that all my connectivity problems are caused by the unavailability of the gateway by default on the virtual machine, but I have no idea how to solve this problem. When you change the settings of the VM card from static to DHCP I can't even ping on the Hyper-V host.

  All servers are joined to the same domain (VM has been migrated to ESXi, so he joined to the domain before, but I can't connect to using domain accounts, probably due to network issue).

  I hope I described the problem enough, but please let me know if you need more information.

  Try to activate forged passes also on the vSphere vSwitch as you do for the Promiscuous Mode.

• Comments can ping host, but host cannot ping the prompt.

  Hello. I already asked this question in another discussion, but it has a different title, so I decided to ask my question in a new discussion.

  Host: Windows 7, 192.168.186.1, no gateway IP

  Client: Windows XP, 192.168.186.2, no gateway IP

  If the ping of the comments reached the host. But when I try to ping the host's comments, I get '100% packet loss. How it could be explained?

  I take a look at the Windows Firewall on computers and make sure that it is disabled.

• VPN - cannot ping the next hop

  Then some advice... I have configured a server VPN - pptp on my router, create a vpn for the customer at the site. For the moment, the client computer can connect and a connection to the router. I can ping from client to the router (192.168.5.1) but cannot ping 192.168.5.2 (switch) or 192.168.10.X (workstations)

  What I try to achieve is to access the internal network (192.168.10.X), which is the end of the layer 3 switch. Any help/extra eyes would be good.

  Here is my design of the network and the config below:

  Client computer---> Internet---> (1.1.1.1) Cisco router (192.168.5.1) 881---> switch Dell Powerconnect 6248 (192.168.5.2)--> Workstation (192.168.10.x)

  Hi Samuel,.

  I went through your configuration and picked up a few problematic lines...

  First of all, you can't have your vpn-pool to be in the range of 192.168.10.x/24, because you already have this subnet used behind the switch (this would be possible if you had 192.168.10.x range connected directly to the router). In addition, you may not link your virtual model to the WAN ip address, it must be bound to an interface with a subnet that includes your IP vpn-pool range.

  The cleaner for this is,

  Create a new interface of back of loop with a new subnet

  !

  loopback interface 0
  

  192.168.99.1 IP address 255.255.255.0

  !

  New vpn set up, pool

  !

  IP local pool defaultpool 192.168.99.200 192.168.99.210

  !

  Change your template to point the new loopback interface,

  !

  interface virtual-Template1

  IP unnumbered loopback0

  encapsulation ppp

  peer default ip address pool defaultpool

  Ms-chap PPP chap authentication protocol

  !

  All vpn clients will get an IP address of 192.168.99.200 192.168.99.210 range. And they will be able to get the router and up to the desired range 192.168.10.x/24 behind the router. Packages get the switch, then to the host. Host will respond through the gateway (switch)-> router-> Client.

  PS: Sooner, even if your packages arrive at the host, the host will never try to send the response back through the gateway (switch) packets because STI (hosts) point of view, the package came from the same local network, so the host will simply try to "arp" for shippers MAC and eventually will expire)

  I hope this helps.

• Cannot ping the Virtual Machine by host

  Hi all,

  Please help, I use VMWare Workstation 6.5 and I have a physical operating system which is Windows XP SP2, I have a network card, but not connected to a physical switch, the IP address is 192.168.0.1. I installed a Virtual Machine using Microsoft Windows 2003 server as the operating system, promote as domain controller, install the DHCP, DNS service and assign an IP 192.168.0.2, no default gateway.

  My VMnet1 on physical operating system has an IP 192.168.204.1 and VMNet8 has an IP 192.168.126.1.

  The host, I cannot ping the 192.168.0.2 which is the IP address of the Virtual Machine. Even in the Virtual Machine, I can not ping 192.168.0.1 is the IP address of the host. From what I read, the physical and the virtual machine were connected with a virtual switch. Am I wrong?

  Any advice?

  Thanks in advance.

  They SEEM to be in different networks, you need search routing between them,... since they differnet networks...

  on the other

  they do host and the virtual machine on the same subnet / network for EXAMPLE: class C class network 192.168.200.0/24

• Comments cannot ping host

  Hi all:

  I have a strange problem of networking that VMware technical support has not been able to help.

  Summary of the problem: comments cannot ping host unless the host is a ping command, while the guest is ping to the host

  Details of the problem: I have intalled VMware Workstation 6.5.2 on the host Windows Vista Edition Home Premium (SP1). I installed several guests, including Ubuntu 8.04, openSUSE 11, Win XP and Win 2000. All guests use "bridged" network. The host has a static IP address. All guests have DHCP. All these people have the same problem - they cannot ping the host. It simply returns "Destination unreachable". However, if I run a ping from the host (it didn't ping the same customer, any ip address on the network) while the guest is ping to the host, and then will cross ping of the guest. For the next two minutes, the guest will be able to ping the host without any problem (without 'help' of the host). Then the guest will again be able ping on the host and you will have to repeat the same process. Quite strange, isn't? Another problem, I can access the internet from the hosts and guests can ping each other. (I can't access the printer connected to the host. However if the guest can ping on the host, then it can also access the printer as well.) I tried everything but still can't find the root cause of the problem. Here is a list of the things I've tried:

  1. tried VMware Workstation 6.5.2 on a Windows XP computer on the same network (equipped with a wireless card intel) and did NOT have this problem.

  2. firewalls, antivirus software, VPN clients, etc. were all off. It did not help.

  3. the problem disappears if I use the wired Ethernet connection

  4. the current wireless adapter is a D-Link, but I also tried with a Linksys Wireless card and had the same problem

  5. the same problem exists also for VMware 6.5.1

  6. I have installed the software VirtuaBox VM from Sun and installed the same comments from Ubuntu on the same host. The problem goes away!

  7. I also tried the "NAT" networking and had the same problem.

  8. I also tried DHCP for host and had the same problem.

  I've tried everything I can think of and nothing seemed to help. I have filed a request for assistance with VMware tech and traded a few emails with the support guy but have not heard from him for a few days. I would really appreciate if someone can offer a few ideas to help solve this problem. I'm not a networking guru, but I'm a software engineer, so you can talk to me in technical terms.

  Thank you in advance.

  Yes! as noted above, it is the arp tables.

  my router is assigned the same IP address for the host computer and the guest, so as soon as you ping from your host prompt, the mac and ip is back in the arp (invites) tables and from there he will communicate via newly assigned ARP table. You can check this scathing the hostname and it will be the same ip address as your guest (in my case)

  I then googled arp vmware and discovered that it is familir with chipset broadcom and vmware behavior.

  ARP - a displays the tables,

  ARP s 00-00-00-00-00-00 192.168.x.xxx - assign the IP address to a MAC address.

  I hope this helps.
