## Symptoms

- * Not able to connect directly to Virtual System's IP address over SSH from directly connected subnet.

* Traffic capture on Virtual System (while connected to VSX Gateway's IP address over SSH, or from console) shows that Virtual System sends TCP "RST/ACK" in response to TCP "SYN" of SSH connection.

* Virtual System's security policy contains necessary "Allow" rules for SSH traffic. Routing is properly configured.
