Vcenter network connectivity issue
After patching the server firmware, the vcenter virtual appliance can't be accesed with the message as attached.
The vcenter is a vm guest and hence, I can't access it through 0.0.0.0.
Also, I can find the file /opt/vmware/share/vami/vam i_config_n et. Any idea ?

It doesn't accept 'N'. Although I have converted my IPv4 into IPv6, it still can bind successfully.

Some finding, the original configuration is in eth0 but right now it is asking for eth1. However, there is not such file..
Is it possible to ask vCenter to use eth0 instead of eth1 ? Tks
