Unable to Ping VMs on Different Hosts

Hi all,

I currently have vShield Edge installed on a number of standard switch networks.  All of these instances are connected to the same external interface.  Despite creating the same name standard switch networks on a number of hosts, I am unable to ping VMs that are hosted on different hosts even if they are on the same subnet.  It appears that they can ping all of the vShield Edge instances (gateways) but not other VMs on other hosts regardless of the subnet.

Example:

VM1 (10.10.10.1) and VM2 (10.10.10.2) is hosted on Blade1 and can ping each other.

VM3 (10.10.10.3) is hosted on Blade2.  VM1 and VM2 cannot ping VM3 and vice versa.

However if I move VM3 to Blade1, they are all able to ping each other.

How do I go about making it so that they can all ping each other?

Thanks.
