On the Esxi host.
* create new vmkport group on the source and destination esxi host/cluster
Sample networking on the host:
* add a second nic to the vR appliance and reboot the appliance.
* Log into the VAMI page of the vR appliance (default url: https://ip:5480
* go into network>address
* under the eth1 info: set a static IP address there
* now go back to vR>Configuration
* fill in the “ip address for Incoming storage traffic” with the IP address of eth1 and click on “apply network settings”
* validate network and port connectivity (from source Esxi host to the Destination vR appliance)
* Network: vmkping -I vmkx REMOTE_vR_IP (where x is the vmkernel portgroup on the host used for replication)
* port: nc -z vR_IP 31031
* validate network and port connectivity: (from Destination vR appliance to the Destination Esxi )
* curl -v telnet://Destination_ESXI_IP:902
