  • Are you sure sshd on Linux is actually listening on this address? (Check with ss -l sport = :22 or netstat -ltn.) Are you sure the Linux firewall isn't rejecting the connection? "Connection refused" is a pretty specific indication that the server explicitly replied with a RST to the connection attempt. Commented May 16, 2021 at 10:08
  • sshd is listening on 0.0.0.0:22. ssh is possible from 192.168.1.7 ("test") while it is not possible from 192.168.1.204 ("host"). also, there is no firewall active on linux.

  • Does the Linux system receive the connection attempt packets? (Do you see them in tcpdump?) Commented May 16, 2021 at 11:24
  • No, tcpdump (running on linux) does not see the ssh connection attempts from host to linux. tcpdump shows the ssh traffice from any other machine on the net 192.168.1.0/24 to linux, though. That is why I think it's rather a hyper-v/vswitch issue, than a problem with the linux configuration.
