Here are some steps you might want to Explore:

    Verify Virtual Network Adapter:
        Ensure the virtual network adapter is properly connected to a virtual switch within Sangfor HCI.
        Confirm the virtual switch itself has a connection to physical network resources.

    Try Different Adapter Types:
        Experiment with various virtual network adapter types (e.g., VMXNET3, E1000E). ESXi might have better compatibility with certain types.

    Check for Driver Updates:
        If using E1000, ensure you have the latest E1000 drivers for ESXi. These might not be included by default.
        Consult Sangfor HCI documentation for instructions on updating drivers.

    Review ESXi Logs:
        Examine ESXi logs during boot for specific error messages related to network adapter detection. This can provide valuable clues.

    Consult Sangfor Documentation:
        Refer to official Sangfor HCI documentation for supported virtual network adapters and any specific configurations for ESXi compatibility.

    Engage Sangfor Support:
        If issues persist, reach out to Sangfor technical support for assistance. They can provide guidance tailored to your environment and configuration.

Additional Considerations:

    Nested Virtualization Limitations: Be mindful of potential limitations or compatibility issues when running ESXi within a virtualized environment.
    Alternative Approaches: Consider alternative hypervisors specifically designed for nested virtualization or alternative deployment strategies if ESXi proves challenging.
