IP in the firewall does not work in ESXi 5.5 are they allowed?

Hello to all users of the VMWare communities,

I am new to the management and use of VMWare.

Recently, we bought a server with VMWare VSphere ESXi 5.5.

It is on an ISP, with a public IP address in which VMWare management network is configured. By default, all the management ports are open (SSH, Web, VSphere Client ports, and a lot of more ports I think I won't use...).

The problem is that I want to protect as much as possible this host. I have no external firewall to this host to close unused ports so I want to use the built-in firewall.

I am trying to use the feature "Allowed IP addresses" the integrated firewall of ESXi, but it does not work. I want to only allow SSH connections and management via vsphere client of static public ip address from my office, I put this IP address in the settings of the firewall for each service, but apparently it does not work, I can still continue to access across all services.

No idea who might be the problem?

Thank you very much.

Finally, I found the problem.

The firewall is disabled!

I connect to ssh host and do: 'esxcli get network firewall' to get the status of the firewall and after seeing it is disabled, "esxcli network - enabled true firewall.

I Don t know why, but by default in the installation of vmware, the firewall is disabled.

After that I enabled, apparently it remains enabled between restarts.

Thank you everyone (for nothing ;-\)

    How can I get the airplay icon to appear? Changing the settings of firewall does not work

    Hello Drjoe378,

    I understand that you do not see the AirPlay icon in iTunes on your Mac. If you have verified that your firewall is disabled or that the problem occurs regardless of the status of your firewall, there is a little more that can help return your ability to connect to AirPlay devices.

    1. Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes and Apple TV software.
    2. Connect your computer and other devices on the same network Wi - Fi. If you are using Ethernet, connect the two devices on the same router or hub. If you use the Wi - Fi and Ethernet, plug your device AirPlay the same router that your computer uses for Wi - Fi.
    3. Restart your computer, device AirPlay and network router.
    4. Because some Airplay devices include a power switch for AirPlay option, look for the option in the settings and make sure that the feature is enabled. Refer to the user guide of the device for more information.

    Use AirPlay to stream content from iTunes on your computer wireless

  • Firewall does not work. Windows Vista

    Firewall does not work.  Security Center is disabled and when I try to turn it on I get a box saying that it can not be started.  Also firewall is not running and do not use the appropriate settings.  When I try to update the settings, I get a box saying that they cannot be updated.

    Hello

    1. have you made changes on the computer before this problem?

    2. What is the error message or an exact error code?

    3. what security software is installed on your computer?

    I would suggest trying the following methods and check if it helps.

    Method 1:

    Run the fixit from Microsoft Fixit article and if that helps.

    Diagnose and automatically fix problems of Windows Firewall service:

    http://support.Microsoft.com/mats/windows_firewall_diagnostic/

    Method 2: The driver of the authorization (mdsdrv.sys) firewall is a system protected Windows file. You can run the tool File Checker system and if the file is found to be damaged, it will be replaced.
    Proceed with caution.

    a. go to start / all programs / accessories.

    b. right click on the item "Command Prompt" and select the option 'run as administrator '.

    c. click 'Continue' on the UAC prompt.
    In the command window, type the following command.
     SFC/SCANNOW

    d. press ENTER.

    This will take a few minutes to complete. Try not to use the computer during execution of SFC.
    When the tool is finished, restart the computer and review the firewall options.
    Let me know the results.

    Also follow the Microsoft Windows Help article below.

    Hope the information is useful.

  • I keep on getting error 0x6D9 and 0 x 80070424 code when you try to activate my windows firewall, also my mcafee firewall does not work.

    I keep on getting error 0x6D9 and 0 x 80070424 code when you try to activate my windows firewall, also my mcafee firewall does not work. I have Windows 7 and it started only caused since last week. Can someone give me an idea on how to solve this problem?

    When you have McAfee running, he provided the Firewall & automatically deleted the Windows Firewall.   Panel\Windows Firewall control page should have shown a message say.  If you managed to change the settings for the Windows Firewall then you might have corrupted both the McAfee & Windows Firewall.

    I really think you should try a restore for some time point before you tried modifications, if that is even possible.

    If you have uninstalled McAfee Control Panel, programs, then you must also run the Tool McAfee Consumer Product Removal or you will get several unpredictable problems.

    If you still have problems after running the McAfee tool then it could be the result of the previous Windows Firewall changes & the corruption of the system resulting.  Your system is in an unknown state as a result of these changes.

    You can try running SFC/scannow in an admin command prompt, but it wouldn't do any good.

    You may need to use the installation DVD to do a repair installation.  I hope get you lucky, but you may need to do a complete reinstall of Windows.

  • iPhone 5: objective of the camera does not work after update iOS 10

    Hello everyone.

    I swear to you that I have no idea how do... after a few weeks since the release of iOS 10, yesterday I force myself to be updated - the situation with iOS 9.3.2 became crash and unbearable lag every second. The fact is that I update, I like the system and use it for a few hours. Check the camera this morning, I see that the focus does not work. Now I also see AE / AF Lock, light changes whenever I tap on one side or the other, but not to focus. Not even close or far, nothing to do. I have not tried in the settings to do a full erase, I had no way to restore it since I do not have a backup.

    I tried to clean the lens - already cleaned, I tried to give him a few small nicks and follow the many guides online. I rebooted and everything done. Nothing has changed.

    The last photo was taken last night and has been developed. So I don't think it's a hardware problem and if so, how has it happened? A few hours ago the iPhone is fallen, but tell me if it makes sense. If it's a software problem, what could I do?

    I would avoid the assistance. It is a used iPhone, never jailbroken. I don't have a lot of confidence with the help, in 6 or 7 years he never went - iPhone always bought used and always worked very well.

    PS: I have no way to get into DFU, as iTunes does not see my iPhone. Up to iOS 9 that I had no problem even if I had enough of the device with the cable isn't original, but barely now lets load ("This accessory may not work").

    Hello

    I also have an iPhone 5 and I tested the question and mine is fine, how bad was the fall that you mentioned? Sometimes problems can come and go. Also try to reformulate your device.

    After this answer please.

    Thank you Will

    Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most of the modules.

    (If you use it, switch to the default theme).

    • Under Windows, you can open Firefox 4.0 + in Safe Mode holding the key SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    • On Mac, you can open Firefox 4.0 + in Safe Mode holding the key option key when starting Firefox.
    • Under Linux, you can open Firefox 4.0 + with leaving Firefox then go to your Terminal and running Safe Mode: firefox-safe-mode (you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)
    • Or open the Help menu and click on the restart with the disabled... modules menu item while Firefox is running.

    Once you get the pop-up, simply select "" boot mode safe. "

    If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one. To do this, please follow article Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems .

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

    When find you what is causing your problems, please let us know. It might help others who have the same problem.
