SSH from ESXi to VMs

Hi All,

ESXi 6.7 U2

There are two VMs running on this ESXi 

1. VM Windows server 2016

2.VM Centos 8

I need to make an SSH from ESXi to for example windows server VM...

an example would be 

[root@ESXi-Host:~] ssh MyUser@192.168.8.35

When I perform this command it ends up with connection timed out.

The Firewall is totally off in both VMs

I can for example make an SSH from Centos to the ESXi but the opposite does not work

Is there any idea, how can I access the VMs from ESXi with SSH ?

My Main purpose is to end one of the application running in the windows VM by a script runs in ESXi host.

Actually I am planning to have SSH access to windows VM and end the known process.

(SSH in ESXi is of course enabled not required to tell)
