After deploying a new FTDv 7.x, I encountered an issue where, after configuring the Management IP settings (including Device IP, Gateway, and Mask), I couldn’t ping any devices on the network. I received a "No Route to Host" error, which was puzzling since the Management IP is on the same Layer 2 network as the device I was trying to ping. When I switched the management interface to use DHCP, I successfully obtained DHCP IP settings. This confirmed that the VLAN in VMware was correctly assigned to the vNIC. However, even with the DHCP settings, which included the default gateway, I still couldn’t ping anything—not even the default gateway—indicating that there was still no route to the host. I've also noted that the IP was assigned to "eth0" instead of "Management0/0," and I’m unsure if that’s the source of the issue. Unfortunately, I haven’t found a command that allows me to assign an IP to Management0/0, which I suspect is the intended egress interface for management access.

@CarsonDavis56998 when pinging from the management interface you need to use "ping system <ip address>".
