VEA GUI has problems in adding secondary if all NICs on primary are DHCP enabled

Last published : Oct 01, 2026
When VEA is connected to the Primary host using "localhost" as the hostname and all the NICs on the primary server have DHCP enabled on them, then the Add Secondary Wizard fails to identify that it is connected to the Primary host and does not proceed further.(860607)
Workaround: To avoid this issue, connect to the Primary host using either the hostname or the IP address of the server.
