NSX Login - This webpage is not available

[sawag]

Hello All,

I am preparing my home lab for NSX 6.2.4 with two ESXi hosts and a vCenter Appliance. I didn't deploy NSX OVF though vCenter vSphere Web Client but simply deployed as, just right click on NSX OVF and open it through VMWare Workstation. It deployed successfully. Then I changed the IP Addresses settings through the NSX console I mean changed IP Address, subnet, GW, DNS Server setting. Now I can ping the appliance from my Domain Controller and vise versa. When I try to browse the NSX appliance with NSX IP for configuration and vcenter registration, it shows "This webpage is not available"

Kindly advise about the issue.

Make sure the interface you are configuring is the interface mgmt and remove the previous/current IP first before changing to new IP

If it still doesn't work, you can also try to stop and start the NSX Management Service / web-manager from NSX CLI Privileged mode

Thanks Bayu for you reply. I followed the link and restarted web manager but still there is no luck. The web interface is not displaying for nsx configuration.

The blog post in previous reply is based on NSX 6.2.3 from the screenshot, hope it works on NSX 6.2.4 too but I have no idea.

Have you done all the steps in the blog post such as:

1. set new password for the admin user

2. set new password for CLI privileged mode

3. save the config using write mem

4. set a default gateway/default route

Can you remote SSH into the NSX Manager?

From logical point of view, I think this should not be matter but worth to try. I'm just thinking if the web interface somehow won't start if we haven't set a new password or set a default gateway or save the config for example

Thanks for reply. I am not able to SSH NSX manager. it is generating error 'network error: Connection refused' I stopped and started SSH server on NSX manager also but still generating "Connection refused"

Have you try to redeploy the NSX Manager from scratch?

I re-deployed NSX Manager and everything is working normal.
