cannot ping vse gateway

[tdubb123]

I deployed a new edge gateway in a new vdc but I cannot ping the vse gateway. On the vse, I noticed it is attached to a few portgrouops

What do you see in the IP information of the edge gateway? has it obtained the internal and external interface IP's? which IP are you trying to ping?

Well I dont know what the external gateway should be. I man man vlans and each vlan has their own gateway. so do I pick a vlan external gateway from each vlan? Thee can only be one external gateway right?

In vsphere, I have dvswitch with different port groups with different vlans tagged.

so what should i use for external gateway?

Hello,

I see that you have created vSE Gateway but did you created any Org Network using the vSE gateway? (Ex: Routed Org Network).

By creating vSE Only will not be much of use.

I would recommend reading this article.

do you mean if i hve multiple vlans/port groups on my dvs, i will have muliple external gateways in vcd?

becuse each vlan hs there own subnet. gateway, ip pool etc....

[tdubb123]

so ok, i created a portgroup called it test in vcenter and vlan 51 tagged

then i go to vcd and create a port group backed network pool, select the port group name that was created in vcenter but now it says port group is in use?

what does that mean in use?
