I'm running Win 7 on Host PC and installed Call manager as guest-OS using VMWare workstation ... I cannot ping between the two IPs that are on the same subnet ... Firewall is turned off on Win 7 and so is Anti Virus software .... Mode that I use for connectivity between the two is bridged mode .... I think this means that Host PC LAN's NIC will be used for communication in and out .... <br />
<br />
IP of Win 7 PC: 192.100.64.16/24<br />
IP of Guest PC (Call Manager Server): 192.100.64.11/24<br />
<br />
There are other NICs like Vmnet1 and Vmnet8 which I have not changed anything on ... <br />
<br />
Can someone please assist with this ?

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.

IP telephony (Internet Protocol telephony) is a general term for the technologies that use the Internet Protocol's packet-switched connections to exchange voice, fax, and other forms of information that have traditionally been carried over the dedicated circuit-switched connections of the public switched telephone network (PSTN). Using the Internet, calls travel as packets of data on shared lines, avoiding the tolls of the PSTN. The challenge in IP telephony is to deliver the voice, fax, or video packets in a dependable flow to the user.

A router is a networking device that forwards data packets between computer networks. Routers perform the "traffic directing" functions on the Internet. The most familiar type of routers are home and small office cable or DSL routers that simply pass data, such as web pages, email, IM, and videos between computers and the Internet. More sophisticated routers, such as enterprise routers, connect large business or ISP networks up to the powerful core routers that forward data at high speed along the optical fiber lines of the Internet backbone. Though routers are typically dedicated hardware devices, use of software-based routers has grown increasingly common.
