Tested EVE VM under windows 10, create cisco router connects to Cloud0, it works - from router ping outside and from outside ping router.
But same configuration didn't work with Centos7 + VMware Workstation 12.

The EVE VM is bridged to VMNet0 which is bridged to Centos physical interface eno1. Same configuration on windows 10 + VMware workstation 12.

The EVE VM can talk to the cisco 7200 router, the router can talk to EVE VM.
The router can obtains IP from DHCP server, the wifi router 192.168.1.1.
Outside and talk to EVE VM but not the router. The router can't talk to outside.

How to fix this?

Thanks!

you sure your centos has no FW which is blocking, because Linux users has no such issues at all

Thanks Uldis!

All the firewalls in Centos and EVE are disabled.

I found the root cause: run the VMWare workstation as root user, everything will work fine.

I was running the EVE VM as normal user. I guess it is a Centos privilege issue.

Thanks!
