VMware Player 5.0.1 in ESXi5 VM - Bridged network issue

$

Hi community,

 

I have the strange situation that I have to run the Player in a VM that is running on ESXi 5.0. Please don't ask why I just have to deal with this situation for now, no alternatives at the moment

The VM is also set up properly so that VMs run fine on the Player, except for one thing: The bridged networking is not working, From the Player VM I can ping the ESXi VM and vice versa, however from the Player VM I can't reach anything else.

I also did a check with vmnetcfg.exe and the correct vNIC on the ESXi VM is selected. There are also no VLANs that could interfere, so I'm a little bit lost what could be the issue here.

 

General question is, is it even possible to do this properly in my current scenario? I can't use NAT since the Player VMs require their own IP to be visible to the physical network. Is there any way how to fix this?

 

Thanks a lot in advance

Best regards
