Cisco ISE installation on VMware Workstation ?

[paragmahajan40]

I am trying to install Cisco ISE image through Vmaware Workstation , but after starting VM getting redhat console but not the same console required for setup of actual ISE . Would like to know whether VMware workstation supported for ISE installation as all the cisco docs specifies the image to be mounted on ESX server, then login to client to run setup.. Please help...

I installed ISE .ova file on home lab ESXi 6.0 VM.

I was able to run "setup", but can't get to GUI. I admit I'm a newbie on VM instances / virtual bridging, so if you've any thoughts, please advise.

Thanks, B

Can you reach the ISE server with a ping from your network or log into the terminal via ssh?

If you can't do either of those, you probably have an ESXi server setup issue.

If you can ssh to ISE, what does "show application status ise" tell you?
