      Hello Everyone,

      I'm hoping this is just a derp moment for me. But I have two xenserver hosts setup in a pool.
      Host A = PFsense + Guest 1
      Host B = Guest 2

      Guest 1 can surf the web and speed test as well. I can also ping the web. Guest 2 can ping the web but won't surf the web or speed test.
      The network is setup on a Cross Server Private Network. Guest 2 can ping PFsense. I also tried migrating Guest 1 to host B and it has the same issue as Guest 2. Both guests are ubuntu.

      I already did xe vif-param-set uuid=* other-config:ethtool-tx="off" for all the PFsense interfaces and also installed the Distributed Virtual Switch Controller hence why it can ping across hosts. xe vif-param-get uuid=${VIF} param-name=other-config  shows that the settings have been set and I tried some other flags as well such as:
      ethtool-gso
      ethtool-ufo
      ethtool-tso
      ethtool-sg
      ethtool-tx
      ethtool-rx

      But I can't seem to get Guests on Host B to communicate out to the internet. Am I missing something?
