    I have also run into this caveat. I am running 13.1.1.4 on VMware Workstation 15 on Fedora 29 Linux kernel 5.0.4

    tmsh modify /sys db tm.tcplargereceiveoffload value disable

     

    tmsh modify /sys db tm.tcpsegmentationoffload value disable

     

     

    It appears that WMware loses packets when offload is enabled.

issue still exists in version BIG-IP 14.0.0.2.

 

I haven't been able to successfully sync two VEs running in VMware Workstation since 13.0.

 

Last version this worked was 12.1.x.

 

I do loads of demos, trainings, workshops etc. using the vLab environment. It's a pity I can't show DSC on any current version.
