Hello, I have downloaded and setup VDP 5.8 on my 5.5u2 ESXi box at home. I deployed the OVA and went through the OVA configuration. Once the VM is booted, I can connect to the console and it gives me the URL to connect to... https://192.168.172.50:8543/vdp-configure, but I've tried numerous times to connect with multiple web browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Safari) and cleared the cache, ran in incognito mode, etc. to no avail. I even tried to go back to the 5.5 appliance with the same issue. I have not had this problem with other deployments including the vSphere Replication Appliance or the Server Appliance.
I can login to the console as the root user, I can ping from other hosts both by ip address and hostname (vdp), I even ran nmap to make sure the port is open. Any ideas?
