PA VM 7.1.0 after set default gateway, can't ping any Internet IP including the gateway.

Hi All,

I setup PN VM 7.1.0, my vmworkstation is pro 12.5.2. I b

VMnet11 bridge my wire network card.

I set 192.168.200.98 for the management interface of the PA VM

Next I set IP, zone and default gateway for ethernet 1/1

Afther that, I am having problems. The default gateway can ping the IP of ethernet 1/1 of the PA VM

ping 10.12.172.230
Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 10.12.172.230, timeout is 2 seconds:
!!!!!
Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 1/6/10 ms

But the PA VM can't ping the gateway and any Interent IP.

admin@PA-VM> ping host 10.12.172.1
PING 10.12.172.1 (10.12.172.1) 56(84) bytes of data.

From 192.168.200.98 icmp_seq=2 Destination Host Unreachable
From 192.168.200.98 icmp_seq=3 Destination Host Unreachable

admin@PA-VM> ping host 8.8.8.8
PING 8.8.8.8 (8.8.8.8) 56(84) bytes of data.
From 192.168.200.98 icmp_seq=1 Destination Host Unreachable

From 192.168.200.98 icmp_seq=3 Destination Host Unreachable
From 192.168.200.98 icmp_seq=5 Destination Host Unreachable

It looks like that all network traffic go to management interface. Could anyone tell me how I can resolve?

Thanks in advance!

If you send out a ping using the >ping host x.x.x.x command, you are actually sending out the ping from the management interface.

If you want to send out a ping from the dataplane interface, you need to set the source IP

>ping source 10.12.172.230 host x.x.x.x

Hello,

Also it seems that your Management interface doesnt have a gateway IP set. So either you need to populate one or change the default Service Route Config since it sources all updates/etc. from the Management interface.
