vFTD ports are not showing UP

[Himanshu_Dwivedi]

I have deployed 2 vFTD on ESXI 8, everything is fine I am also able to access GUI, but as soon as I enable data interface no ports are showing UP even I enables them. They are property mapped with dedicated port group. What might be the problem

what interface are you using on esxi :

check below guide make sure the interface as suggested :

Its ESXI 8, might that be the issue?

[balaji.bandi]

on the OP you mentioned vSphere 7 ?  have you got the time to read the document which was provided  and always read the installation document and requirement.

if you using esxi 8- check below thread :

I have defined a Separate Port Group for FTD interfaces and Yes I read the document and did the installation as per Instructions provided on it. Ports are still showing not connected.

Just posting a solution for this... Just deploy a OVF file and do not power it on the VM, remove all the 10 interfaces and add new one which will use default as E1000 interface, then power it on it will start working...
