Promiscuous is currently set to reject on both v-switches. We have tried both settings though and we still get the same results.

Let me clarify some other details. Both servers are identical. Both are using the same Broadcom dual port 10gig fiber ports and both have virtual switches with the same virtual nic applied. The physical nics both plug into the same physical cisco switch. Subnet is /24.

VMWARE ESXi 7.0 hosts cannot communicate on same vlan but can to vlans

So I have 2 VMware esxi hosts that are not connected to vcenter. They are completely independent. I have VMware 1 VM host configured with VLAN 363 with an IP of 10.236.3.1 and I have Vmware 2 VM host with ip 10.236.3.2. I cannot ping from .1 to .2 or .2 to .1 but can ping everything in the VLAN that is not on the ESXi hosts. VMWARE 1 hosts that are on 363 can ping other VLAN 363 hosts sitting on VMWARE 1. Same for VMWARE 2. Both servers are identical. Both are using the same Broadcom dual port 10gig fiber ports and both have virtual switches with the same virtual nic applied. The physical nics both plug into the same physical cisco switch. Subnet is /24. I have been on the phone with Vmware support for 6 hours and have no resolution. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
