Hi,<br />
<br />
I had configured vLan tagging on the vSwitch but the Pswith was configured as an access port, that is why is was not working. I then set vSwitch to vLan 0 and that solved the issue.<br />
Your link would have solved the issue so I will accept as a solution.<br />
<br />
Thanks for your help,

I am creating an isolated DMZ in my VMWare environment.<br />
<br />
There are 2 checkpoint firewalls in a cluster, the cluster address is 192.168.10.10 <br />
Connections are going to the firewalls from core switches with switchport access configured on the ports and vlan 10<br />
The VM has a dedicated vSwitch connected to a physical nic. VM IP address is 192.168.10.20 pointing to 192.168.10.10 as Default gateway.<br />
This needs to be isolated from the rest of the network.<br />
The switch sees the mac address of the VM, I can ping the Cluster IP address from the switch<br />
I cannot get the VM to see the Gateway.<br />
<br />
Any ideas would be so appreciated.<br />
<br />
Look forward to hearing from you

Hardware-based firewalls provide more sophisticated protection for inbound and outbound traffic than the simple Windows software firewall or the basic NAT firewalls found in routers. These devices implement techniques such as stateful packet inspection, deep packet inspection, and content filtering; and may include built-in antivirus and anti-malware protection.

Hardware Firewalls

Windows 7 is an operating system from Microsoft. Features include multi-touch support, a redesigned Windows Shell with a new taskbar, referred to as the Superbar, a home networking system called HomeGroup, and performance improvements.

A switch is a device that filters and forwards packets of data between LAN segments. Switches operate at the data link layer or the network layer of the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) Reference Model and therefore support any packet protocol. LANs that use switches to join segments are called switched LANs or, in the case of Ethernet networks, switched Ethernet LANs. A hub is a connection point for devices in a network. Hubs are commonly used to connect segments of a LAN. A hub contains multiple ports; when a packet arrives at one port, it is copied to the other ports so that all segments of the LAN can see all packets.
