      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;Just check whether this link to metadata is accessible form your ESX box.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Just give wget &amp;lt;link to the metadata.zip&amp;gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;If you are not abl to download the matadata, then the firewall will be in blocking mode.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Just give esxcli network firewall set -e 1 -d 1.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;This will turn on the firewall but default action will be PASS.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>
