Good evening,

I thought I was onto something with another post from 2012 titled "Unable to ping outside of the jail". It eluded to enabling promiscuous mode.

On the other hand, this really comes down to a basic networking issue. For some reason, I cannot ping the default route IP from the NAS, but I can ping it just fine with all other network devices on the network.

Here's the layout:

I have NAS running within ESXi. Promiscuous mode is on in the ESXi vSwitch0.
Router / Default Route: 192.168.0.1
NAS: 192.168.0.11/16
DHCP for hosts 192.168.1.100-.254 (Basically, 192.168.0.x are for network duties (router, nas, my lab DC, App servers, etc.), 192.168.1.100-.254 are for devices connecting in otherwise (wifi))

Other hosts on the 192.168.x.x network can ping 192.168.0.1, 192.168.0.11 (nas), and other hosts on the network just fine (icmp replies).
NAS can ping hosts on the 192.168.x.x hosts, but can't ping the router 192.168.0.1. Nor can it ping Internet IP addresses (I tried pinging my VPS and a few others).

From NAS:

Any ideas???

Thanks in advance!

Hello,

I resolved this issue. It wound up being a route that I had on my router. Oops! I just reworked some networking recently and forgot about that one.

Please disregard this thread.

Thanks. :)
