describe your config in more detail like:<br />
- vswitch/portgroup config (IPs, settings and vlans)<br />
- vm ip/portgroup config (portgroup is a name of a Network (network label) in VM properties<br />
- what you exactly can ping and what you exactly (IP address and what it is) can't ping and from where<br />
<br />

Hi there,<br />
I had some problems with a ESXI server which wouldn't start anymore. It gave an error on oem.tgz which holds the network and raid driver of the system. I managed to get it running again, but now I have the next problem. I can ping outside from the ESXI server using the management network test, but I can't ping the server or one of it's VM's. However I can connect with infrastructure client to the server.<br />
Can anyone point me in the right direction on this?<br />
<br />
Thanks,<br />
Roger

I can ping outside but not inside on ESXI 3.5

VMware, a software company founded in 1998,  was one of the first commercially successful companies to offer x86 virtualization. The storage company EMC purchased VMware in 1994. Dell Technologies acquired EMC in 2016. VMware’s parent company is now Dell Technologies.

VMware has many software products that run on desktops, Microsoft Windows, Linux, and macOS, which allows the virtualizing of the x86 architecture.  Its enterprise software hypervisor for servers, VMware vSphere Hypervisor (ESXi), is a bare-metal hypervisor that runs directly on the server hardware and does not require an additional underlying operating system.

Virtualization is the act of creating a virtual (rather than actual) version of something, including (but not limited to) a virtual computer hardware platform, operating system (OS), storage device, or computer network resources. Virtualization is usually the creation of a system that executes separate from the underlying hardware resources, or the creation of an entire desktop for systems located elsewhere, similar to thin clients.
