Can not Ping Secondary Ip in VM Created By ESXI 5.1

Hi All,

Maybe my question is so easy but I don't know how to do because I'm newbie at ESXI. I'm using ESXI 5.1 I have two different ip in two different block(192.168.2.48 & 10.122.127.203). I have defined 10.122.127.203 as manually. This ip's gateway is 10.122.127.193.  After that, I have defined route to my manuel ip in my virtual machine.

Destination         Gateway                Genmask                 IFace

10.122.127.0      10.122.127.193     255.255.255.192     eth1

10.122.127.192   *                            255.255.255.192     eth1

and added route to file system.

After that processes I have started to configure esxi networking. I have created new virtual switch and connect physical adapter to this switch (vSwitch2). I have two virtual machine port group. First one is VM Network and second one is VM Network 2. In VM's edit settings section, I have choose VM Network 2 for second network adapter. Now my machine is connected to this physical adapter.

But I can not ping to second IP.

Do I need to add VMkernel Port to second virtual switch and after that do I need to define route to this VMkernel port. Actually I did this but still not working. I'm waiting for your help.

Best Regards,

Murat.

Also check the ESXi NIC port connected to the switch port has hybrid mode, and pass all relevant VLAN.
