I'm using vSphere ESXi 4.0.
I logged in to my host server through vSphere client. Then on the vSphere client interface, I went to "Configuration" tab -> "Networking" link under Hardware, -> "Properties" link -> clicked on Edit of "Management Network" under "Ports" tab -> "IP Settings". Then I changed the IP Address, Subnet Mask, and VMKernel Default Gateway. Clicked "OK". after this, my vSphere client lost connection to that host, I cannot log in anymore using the old or new IP.
Log in Error message: vSphere client could not connect with the vSphere Server "xxx.xx.x.xx". Details: A connection failure occurred (unable to connect to the remote server).
I don't know what those changes I made mean (was just tinkering around), and want to revert to the old IP now. How can I do so through my client terminal? Do not wish to go to the physical host server to do it (but if that's what it takes, how to do it as well?)
Thanks so much. Really need help.
