Strange issue with vShield Edge Gateway on vCloud

Hi everyone,

I'm facing a very strange issue with vShield Edge Gateway as below topology

VM02 can successfully ping VM01. However, VM01 can't ping VM02 (vShield firewall is disabled)

If we change VM02 default gateway to 10.11.32.253, ping is successfully between the 02 VMs.

It seems like vShield Edge Gateway issue.

Thank you in advance for your advice.

Hi

Had similar problem like this before a couple times with different resolution:

- Restart vShield Edge solved the problem

- Enable firewall and configure to allow traffic solved the problem

- in vCD environment, moving the VM to different host Solved the problem, there was some issue with the host. Unprepared then prepared the host Solved the problem

Hope one of these resolution work for you

Hi Bayu,

Thanks for the advice.

I've tried to:

- restart edge gateway

- redeploy edge gateway

- Enable firewall and allow any traffic

- Move vm to different hosts

unfortunately, none of these work Smiley Sad
