I have configured one of the ESXi 4 on DL380 G6 server.
This server has 8 port NIC card like VMNIC0,VMNIC1,VMNIC2,VMNIC3,VMNIC4,VMNIC5,VMNIC6 & VMNIC7.
VMNIC0 is configured as console cable & assigned IP address 192.168.1.210 (VLAN 11) in a same way we have configured other NIC
VMNIC3 & VMNIC5 (VLAN 10)
VMNIC2 & VMNIC6 (VLAN 11)
VMNIC1 & VMNIC7 (VLAN 12)
We have created 3 VM's all are in VLAN 11.
Whenever we move this VM to a Vswitch connected to VMNIC2 & VMNIC6 we are not able to ping with the gateway but when i move these VM to a console switch (VMNIC0 which is in same VLAN 11) i can able to ping with the gateway through these VM's.
I have checked the NIC card 2 & 6 there is no any problem I have checked the switch port of NIC 2 & 6 ther are absolutely good.
I have checked the VLAN of port 2 & 6 they are correct (VLAN 11 as console VLAN)
What is the reason of this strange behavioure?
Is there anything i need to chek from ESX side?
Have you came across of this kind of behaviore from any another customer?
Please let me know your input on the same.
Thanks
