Hello experts,
I have a situation here, I configured two VMWare workstations viz rac1 and rac2 both have eth0 configured as bridged connection. when i ping the other workstation (rac1 to rac2 & viceversa) it is showing me an error

Welcome to the Community,
as a first step check whether the VMs are able to ping their gateway address (192.168.0.1). If this doesn't work, make sure your wireless router allows multiple connections from the same physical system.

Thanks for the reply andre, when i pinged gateway 192.168.0.1 it is still showing destination host unreachable. kindly advise what to do.
As mentioned before, you may need to check whether your wireless router allows multiple connections through the same physical wireless adapter.
If there's no requirement to access the VMs from other external systems, consider to switch to NAT networking which should not have any issues (regardless of the physical adapter).

what is OS in your VM (Linux)?
check your VM network status first (if you use linux you can use command ifconfig), UP or DOWN?
from your VM can you ping to your Host (IP 192.168.0.50)?
If not then you need to check network adapter status in VM (UP/DOWN)?
if network adapter UP, check your bridge configuration in vmware workstation configuration (maybe you pointing to wrong network adapter)
Thanks for all your support, yes it was up, could find fault... did few things and it is working now.
1) installed vmnet bridge protocol ---> vmnet0 --> properties --->check vmnet bridge protocol
2)updated & reinstalled wireless adapter driver
3)reinstalled vmware & its n/w components
Thanks you anif & a.p 🙂
