Hoping someone can help here:
I've tried to use 8.0u2c or 8.0U1 nested ESXi's and the network settings do not seem to work.
The Host ESXi is 8.0u2 configured with trunked VLAN on the Portgroup I assigned for the nested ESXi.
The nested ESXi is configured with no vlan tag in it's DCUI interface.
I have tried 2 nested ESXi builds, and they both behave the same.

and the 8.0u2b

By comparison, the VSAN Witness Appliance 8.0u2 "VMware-VirtualSAN-Witness-8.0U2-22380479" - works flawlessly on the same portgroup, same physical host.
Hoping someone can help point out what it is that is appears to be broken with nested ESXi.
