Determining The IP Address Using VMware ESXi

vSphere hypervisor IP address.
2. If you receive a certificate security warning, select the checkbox next to “Install this certificate…” and click
Ignore.
An evaluation notice appears until you enter your ESXi license information.
3. Click OK bypass the evaluation for now.
NOTE: You must enter your license information within 60 days or the appliance ceases to function properly.
CAUTION: Do not install a free license key as the APIs required for VIAB to work with the hypervisor close
and the setup process ends.
