Is ESXI 6.5 and XG bridge mode a no go?

Court Hale

I've researched this for a few hours now. None of the threads I read reached a conclusion. 

Can you use XG in bridge mode with esxi? It seems like 6.5 may have some issues with the virtual nics making the devices on the end visible to the router.

I've set up firewall rule passing through any to any. Messed around with the configuration on my sophos. Allowed promiscuous mode on my nics in ESXi. I have 5 nics total on my server. 1 is set up for management for the esxi. And I have two other set up for Lan and wan on the sophos vm.

    Hi,

    i´m curios about the use case for a bridge in a VM.

    Never tried to setup such a environment.

     

    Cheers

    This is for home use. I have a Lenovo TS440 that's been sitting around doing nothing for a year. I should install it barebones but it seems to overkill to give it every core of an intel 1245 for a 300mb connection. I also want to try an OSSIM VM on it too.

    I probably will end up using the sophos alone. However, I tried doing that last week. The sophos failed to boot on an esxi restart causing a huge headache. Just want to get the esxi configured correctly before I do so.
