• Network card for ESXi 5.5 on 10 Workstation

  I have a comments 5.5 ESXi hypervisor running on a 5.5 ESXi hypervisor host. I used vCenter Standalone Converter 5.5.2 to convert the hypervisor of comments to a VMWare Workstation VM (v10).

  Now the network card is not recognized by the hypervisor of comments ESXI 5.5 running in workstation 10. Specifically, the error is "no compatible network adapter found. For a list of the cards taken in charge, please consult the Hardware Compatibility Guide (HCG) products'. Networking on the hypervisor of comments on the ESXi 5.5 running hypervisor host works very well.

  I tried to remove the adapter and recreate in my computer, and it didn't is not that many settings in VMWare Workstation for network cards so I don't know what I could do wrong.

  Notes:

  • I was originally the guest ESXi works normally on 10 Workstation (put in a network all worked) and I actually used the stand-alone converter to implement on the ESXi host in the first place. So from my point of view I basically just downloaded and then downloaded again and the network card has stopped working - but I'm sure it's more complicated than that.
  • I added vhv.enable = "true" in the vmx file twice after the conversion of the virtual machine.
  • I enabled 'Virtualiser EPT-x/Intel VT or AMD-V/IVR' in the settings of the processor.
  • The prompt that is running on the ESXi ESXi host, I had the network configured to be promiscuous, but I don't think I can do it again on my computer one because the ESXi guest cannot yet see the NIC at this stage.

  I believe that the default ethernet to guestOS adapter type 'other' is vLance.  Open the settings of the virtual machine and try to change the operating system invited to 'ESXi 5.x.

• ESXi 5.5 network card help

  Hello

  This is my first post, hope both sound in the right place!

  In any case a recently built myself a box of ESXi from lab to the home of a GA-Z68X-UD3H-B3 and i5 2500 k, 16 GB Ram etc...

  I does not, is that the onboard network adapter did not work

  I searched Google high and low for a fix, try to download a file .vib for the Board / card and custom creation iso but not luck

  I can get the map to be seen by ESXi but no HR connection static or DHCP

  In any case after further investigation I Born a card everyone talks of the EXPI9301CTBLK of intel, someone had experience using this successfully as its cheap not then want to make sure she s will work front a purchase it

  The link is less than the product

  Intel EXPI9301CTBLK Gigabit Pro PCI Express Gigabit network card OEM - Scan.co.uk

  Any help would be greatly appreciated and or if someone knows an accurate way to get the card to work, I just need LAN

  Thank you

• Grouping of NETWORK cards causing the ESXi to retransmit ethernet frames received.

  I had an HP Proliant DL380 G5 ESXi 5.1.0 connected to a Cisco 3750 Switch stack.

  All by performing a tcpdump on a host without a report, I discovered that he was under the bombardment with ethernet frames for the MAC address of a computer virtual located on a host across the data center. After a few brief troubleshooting, I discovered that I was able to stop those erroneous frames by disabling NETWORK adapters on my VMWare host group.
  
  I believe that in my situation when ESXi is configured to use two network cards to all frames received on vmnic0 and retransmits them on vmnic1 and vice-vesa. I experienced these symptoms when ESXi is configured for failover with an active adapter and adapter mode standby and I also experienced the same symptoms in the following load balancing configuration.
  

  
  

  Symptoms: some time after activating the load balancing, all frames Ethernet for the MAC address of a virtual computer on the affected host are broadcast on each switch port in the entire data center.
  
  Steps to reproduce:
  (1) implementation below configuration.
  (2) unplug the ethernet cable connecting vmnic1 and switch1 port gi2/0/4
  (3) run the host 1.1.1.1 EI - n - q tcpdump on any machine physics linux in the data center (don't even have to be connected directly to 1).
  Confirm there is no packet seen with the IP address of 1.1.1.1 destination
  (4) plug the cable between vmnic1 and switch1 gi2/0/4 port ethernet
  (5) wait 60 to 120 seconds
  (6) watch a burst of frames ethernet with the destination MAC address of the VM (which owns 1.1.1.1) in the output of tcpdump

  I apologize for the delay in my response.

  Unplug physically 2 cable NETWORK card on the host and configuration mirrored port on the switchport to 1 NETWORK adapter of the host, I have been able to confirm that the host VMWare issues guides on NIC1 with a destination MAC address of one of its own VM.

  After carefully reviewing the captured data, I noticed that the destination frames wrong "02:bf:cb:50:a2:76" MAC address actually belonged to "Local Area Connection 1' one of my Windows 2003 Server WHAT VM installed on the suspected host.

  Dig a little deeper, I discovered that this virtual NETWORK card is presented to the operating system as
  Name: Local 1 network connection
  "Type: VMware Accelerated AMD PCNet adapt."
  MAC: 02-BF-CB-50-A2-76

  But the configuration of the virtual machine in vCentre is
  Name: Network adapter 1
  Type: Flexible
  MAC: 00: 0C: 29:fa:e8:83

  Note the different MAC addresses.

  Digging a little further I discovered that Windows 2003 server has configured on "Local 1 network connection" network load balancing and NLB is the cause of the altered MAC address.

  Rather than to investigate further I have just placed a load balancer linux before the server windows 2003 cluster and that you turn off NLB.

  But I suspect that there is still a fundamental problem in the Virtual Switch VMware with how he learns the MAC addresses of the virtual machine is using flexible vNIC. In particular, with a virtual machine that uses a form to override the MAC address such as that used by NLB.

• Best way to set up a host of ESXi 4 with only 3 network cards?

  Set us up an ESXi 4 Host with 3 cards.  It is a stand-alone server that will not connect to the SAN FC network.  However, we respect the vStorage VM function if necessary.

  With only 3 cards on hand, there's any suggestion on the speed and the consolidation of NETWORK cards that we set up?  Our network administrator wants to give us only 1 x 1 Gbps Connection + 2 x 100 Mbit/s.

  Your suggestion is requested

  Thank you

  Post edited by: TonyJK

  Since you do not connect to FC SAN I guess you have local storage or storage over IP.

  In this case it is recommended to dedicated 1Gbit link for IP storage. If you can not have dedicated you will share Gbit link between the storage on IP and VMs.

  100 MBit NIC cand be used only:

  (1) dedicated storage VMotion or IP management interface

  (2) relief links networks of VM and management failover

  You definitely need at least 2 running on Gbit network cards

• Intel WiFi Link 5100 network card - cannot detect wireless networks

  I have a HP Pavilion dv7-1270us. My wireless card is an Intel WiFi Link 5100.

  Running Windows Vista 64 bit, Ubuntu Linux, Linux Mint and Fedora Linux (various versions, all), the wireless works fine. My desktop computers to work with wireless cards to connect to the network work very well, and all computers (except mine) to connect to my home network very well; which means that it is not a problem with wireless networks, or with my network card. I try to manually connect to the network, but it can't find it. Diagnosis requires that the card is disabled, and that I should turn it on via the switch on my laptop running: fact.

  During the installation of Windows 7 64 bit, I cannot see wireless networks (and therefore unable to connect). Re-formated and reinstalled again, check the wireless connectivity between each batch of Windows Update, but it has never worked.

  I downloaded the latest drivers from Intel, via Microsoft Compatibility Center (version 15.2.0 driver).

  There is no system restore option because he has never worked as a first step, except in all other OS, I got on the computer. Microsoft Compatibility says the map is compatible, then Device Manager shows no problems. The network adapter is active via switch on my laptop.

  Happy that you guessed it sorted!

• !!!!!! Help! No network card detected during the instalation ESXI 5.5 in a laptop

  Hello

  I want to get a lab and install an ISO of ESXI 5.5 image from scratch in a laptop Lenovo T430 16 GB of RAM. Everything appears normally, BOOT from CD, copying files, early and late services, appears "not found network card remember that you at least have a network card to connect to the system", there is only the choice to have an ABORTION. Any help? The card is one Intel (R) 82579LM Gigabit Network Connection.

  What is strange to me if I installed a Windows 7 and after 10 VWworkstation, I can install a 5.5.without ESXI, even ISO problem

  ANYhelp is welcome!

  Welcome to the community,

  Please take a look at http://www.virten.net/2013/09/esxi-5-x-installation-on-intel-nuc-fails-with-no-network-adapters/ for more information on how to customize the installation image to recognize your network card. When you install ESXi as a virtual machine in VMware Workstation, it is not the physical NETWORK adapter which is presented to the virtual machine, but a virtual NETWORK adapter for which ESXi uses built-in drivers.

• NETWORK card not detected after installing ESXi 4.1?

  Hi all

  I installed the ESXi Server 4.1 on a single server with the following configurations,

  CPU = Intel (R) CPU Xeon X 3430 @ 2.40 GHz

  Memory = 16GB

  NIC = Intel 82574 L Gigabit Network connection-2 no

  After that ESXi installation a NIC card not detected. But two cards network is the same configuration. Due to this problem, I can not configure grouping of NETWORK cards. Please suggest me. Thanks in advance.

  Hello!

  On the screenshot that you are using a motherboard Intel S3420GP. Just a NETWORK card is 82574L, the other on board is a 82578DM, which is not supported. So you will need additional network cards.

  See you soon,.

• ESXi does not recognize the PCI network cards

  Good afternoon-

  I am trying to add a few new ESXi hosts to my virtual machine environment and I want my NIC integrated with the PCI NICs for tolerance to failures of the team.  ESXi is not to see the PCI network cards.  I can't find a way on how to add them to the host.  Add network cards in VC shows just the cards integrated network, the same as the ESXi console (or what there is of it).  What I'm missing here?  Thanks in advance.

  Is what model of network interface cards?  You may need to install drivers for them - http://downloads.vmware.com/d/info/datacenter_downloads/vmware_vsphere_4/4#drivers_tools.

• not supported for ESXi 4 NIC... Can I simply add a NETWORK card?

  Maybe it's painfully obvious, but I don't want to assume anything.  I tried to install ESXi 4u1 this morning on a machine just to see if it would work, and I have not reported any supported network cards.  Can I buy a NETWORK card support and then ESXi 4 will work?  Is it really as simple as that, or is there some other stuff that I'm not aware of?

• Get ESXI, up and running, but I have changed the NETWORK card settings, how do I fix? Help please!

  ESXi perfect on my server but stupid ass me were running so I

  play with the card NETWORK card and I changed to 1000 end, and it was

  100 MB and I forgot I was on a 10/100 switch,.

  in any case now I

  cannot ping or you connect the box to esxi...

  What should I do?

  The

  Server is a dual nic, should I connect the other cable network and

  Configure the which? will it work?

  I changed it using vSphere client...

  Connect a monitor, keyboard and mouse to the host (as when you installed and initially configured ESXi)... Connect to the host interface and select the option "configure management network". Clear the existing NETWORK card, and then select the second network card. You will have to regularize, save the configuration when prompted and let it restart the management network. You should be able to manage the host by connecting the client vSphere again. Then, you change the network configuration to match the new settings, or difficulty of the NETWORK card that you have initially activated to use.

  Is the host within a data center/server room? Why is the selector located only 100 MB? If the switch is able to go in the UK, ask that the host port ESXi will use either door to Go, full-duplex. Otherwise, you create a bottleneck, where it can be easily avoided.
