Ping destination unreachable from OVM Host to guest

NotStevenDec 7 2012
Hello,

I currently have an OVM guest running with Oracle Linux 6 but I'm unable to ping from this guest to the OVM Server host. A VNIC has been created in OVM Manager and it has been assigned to my guest.
However when I try to ping from the OVM host to the ip address of my guest i get destination host unreachable error.

(the guest has a static ip)
[root@lnx-iaovm01 scripts]# ping 10.0.2.80
PING 10.0.2.80 (10.0.2.80) 56(84) bytes of data.
From 10.0.2.76 icmp_seq=2 Destination Host Unreachable


network-bridge status on ovm host:
