• The ESXi virtual host cannot connect to other servers somehow. Then, follow the steps below to connect to the ESXi console.

1. Create a Windows virtual machine on the same Hyper-V as the ESXi host is.

2. Remove the network adapter from the Windows virtual machine.

3. Add a Legacy network adapter to the Windows virtual machine.

4. Connect to the ESXi console from a browser on the Windows virtual machine.
