Its hard to understand the issue...

Your vms are not reachable? All of them? or is just a specific one?

In your PortGroup configuration, what VLAN are you using? (You said that your pNICs of your ESXi are conected to the physical SW in trunk mode)

- I would check that, that in your portgroup the correct vlan is selected.

dear nicolas

My problem is only for one virtual machine, not several virtual machines.
I gave a network card to a virtual machine and in the Vswitch I defined for it

I created a few virtual network cards on the virtual machine and gave them an IP
Ping-time virtual network are very time-consuming

Ok, got it know!

If you ping all the interfaces of that VM, you find the same issue with all of them? or only with the one you just created? (What adapter are you using for the Virtual Machine?, what is the OS?

You should use VMXNET3 and install the VMware Tools on the VM.
