    Do we get same error "Address  unresolvable" from both direct ESXi UI and VC  ?

    What is OS  where the   VMRC is installed ? 
    Open the VMRC again and Go to %TEMP%\vmware-%USERNAME%\ and fetch the last vmware-vmrc-xxxx.log and vmware-xxxx-mks-xxxx.log

    VMRC logs 

    VMware Remote Console 12.0 requires direct access to port 443 on ESXi hosts. For more information, see   https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/76672

    May I ask what was the actual solution to this?

    We get the same error and although there are a number of concerning errors in the log files I have not been able to determine the actual problem.

    Hello,

     

    I have the same problem with version 11 and 12. It was working but suddenly get the same error message. The web one works, but not the VMRC.

    Any hints ?

     

    Cheers,

    For those still looking for an answer, it's not just port 433 open, the VM host must also be clear about its own name.

    You can set its name and domain using esxcli system hostname set --fqdn hostname.domain.tld.
