Hello,
I have configured NSX-T on my nested environment and increased the MTU to 1800.
While I can easily ping ESXi hosts from each other on vmk0, I encounter issues when attempting to ping the other ESXi hosts through the following command, as there is no response. Additionally, the Edge VM's tep IP address is also unreachable.
esxcli network ip interface ipv4 get
Name IPv4 Address IPv4 Netmask IPv4 Broadcast Address Type Gateway DHCP DNS

I've tried to find an article to troubleshoot this case, but I couldn't find one.
The byte size of your ping is too small, for an MTU of 1800 you should use 1772.
That being said you should be able to ping them in any regard. What does your topology look like? How have you set up your Uplink profiles? Have you tagged all the ports in the correct vlan?
