Internal network config

Ive been trying to setup and internal network between my laptop and a VM, but cant get communications working between them.

From my understanding I setup an internal switch through Hyper-V manager, I gave the physical servers Internal NIC an IP address 192.168.3.1 with subnet 255.255.255.0 with no gateway, and then setup the VM with an IP 192.168.3.2 with a subnet 255.255.255.0, however from my physical host I cannot ping 192.168.3.2, or access the apache server on the VM.

Ive checked the config, and everything seems ok from a config point of view. Ive even disabled all the other NICs on the physical host to check there isnt a routing issue, but still cant ping :-(

Any ideas what Im doing wrong?

Is it able to ping itself (Apache)?

Try tracert -d 192.168.3.2 from host server and post output here...

Good evening,
Yes, I'm using Hyper-V, however not using External network adapter, Im using Internal as only need connection between host and VM.
I hang my head in shame, it was the firewall stopping it :-(
