Having a little issue with Hyper-v core.

Network set up, connected directly to main router, I can ping all devices successfully from the Hyper-v cmd but can not ping the Hyper-v box from any other device.

Any ideas?

Running Hyper-v 2012 r2

    Why do you need to ping the Hyper-V host? The absence or presence of a response is pretty meaningless except to tell you that the host responds to pings. – joeqwerty Feb 02 '18 at 23:13
  • Can't connect to remote desktop when turned on, can't connect with Hyper-v manager, ping is the first thing to check but since I can't do that something is very wrong. Unless I'm very mistaken and MS are doing something very strange. – Chris Feb 02 '18 at 23:15
  • Depending on the network and firewall profile, ICMP is disabled by default in Windows. Chasing ICMP instead of the "real" issue is often a wild goose chase. Troubleshoot the actual connectivity problem rather than spending time trying to figure out why pings don't work. – joeqwerty Feb 03 '18 at 02:52
  • Fair enough, the router can see the server, I can see the server in the list of connected devices. Could it be as simple as I'm trying to connect to the RDS using a home version of Windows 10? Might try the Windows 7 Ultimate copy I've got. – Chris Feb 03 '18 at 16:19
  • My guess is that the server is using the Public network and firewall profile and the applicable rules for the connection types you're attempting are disabled for that firewall profile. Look at the network profile the server is using and look at the applicable firewall rules (RDP, etc.) for the corresponding firewall profile. – joeqwerty Feb 03 '18 at 16:33
  • How do I do that from cmd? I can't find anything other than full server 2012 – Chris Feb 03 '18 at 17:57

It looks like a firewall issue. Try Corefig to manage Hyper-v core -it's very useful: https://archive.codeplex.com/?p=corefig
