I am running EXOS VM's in Oracle VirtualBox.
I have a topology in this order: host1-sw1-sw2-host2.
I can ping from host2 to host1, but when I try to ping host1 to host2 the ping fails. I can't ping host2 from sw2 either. Here is snapshot of host1 and sw1:
Here is a snapshot of sw2 and host2:
Switch 1 and 2 are connected through OSPF.
What is the correct way to connect hosts in virtualized network?
I know there is no route to host from 192.168.11.3, but it still reaches 192.168.12.0/24 network, shouldn't it reach to the host also?
Thanks

Are those VMs also or are they physical PCs?

Ok, wireshark can see the incoming packet, but says no response is found. Pretty confused what is causing this.

I could install wireshark on those windows machines and track what happens in there.

Oh right, that must've been from the testing that I did with LAG. I will test the ping now with right cabling.
