I am running into a brick wall while I am trying to consolidate the VirtualCenter in production and development into one. Currently the VC sits in production environment. I had network team openning up port 902, 903, 80, 443, 27000 and 27010 between VC and ESX. But right after I successully register a dev ESX in the VC, it shows a status of "not responding" immediately. I have consulted the Server Configuration document on page 183, and found it only requires port open from ESX's 902,tcp/udp,incoming/outgoing, and 27000 TCP outgoing/27010 TCP incoming.
I used telent from VC to each port on the Dev ESX, and here are what I go:
c:\telnet esx1001 902
220 VMware Authentication Daemon Version 1.10: SSL Required, ServerDaemonProtocol:SOAP, MKSDisplayProtocol:VNC
c:\telnet esx1001 903
220 VMware Authentication Daemon Version 1.10: SSL Required, ServerDaemonProtocol:SOAP, MKSDisplayProtocol:VNC
c:\telnet esx1001 80
HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request

<HTML><BODY><H1>400 Bad Request</H1></BODY></HTML>
Connection to host lost.
c:\telnet esx1001 443
Blank. It returns nothing. To me, it seems 443 is open and accepting connection request.
Now it is still not working right. Anyone what I am missing here? Thanks
