Getting UnreachableBrowserException exception in virtual machine - selenium-webdriver

Question

I've created a grid setup in local and able to execute the scripts successfully.
I've created a grid setup in virtual machine, and I am trying to execute automation scripts from local machine. So I have given the VM IP address in local and getting below exception,
org.openqa.selenium.remote.UnreachableBrowserException: Could not start a new session. Possible causes are invalid address of the remote server or browser start-up failure.
Trace:
org.openqa.selenium.remote.UnreachableBrowserException: Could not start a new session. Possible causes are invalid address of the remote server or browser start-up failure.

Answer 1

May be the exception occurred due to organization firewall. Please try the ping test from local machine to VM and vice versa. If ping test fails in any one of the case, you need to contact your network administrator.
