Since you have confirmed that the PC where the ESXi 6.5 host which runs a virtual Sophos UTM 9.4 appliance is a VLAN-aware device, have you checked if tagging is enabled on the physical LAN adapter of the PC? Kindly check this link as a guide on how to check it on your PC.
Also, kindly post images of your actual network setup that especially shows the PC where the ESXi 6.5 host which runs a virtual Sophos UTM 9.4 appliance is connected to the GS108Ev3.

Hi vasileiosg,
Kindly answer the questions below:
a. Is the PC where the ESXi 6.5 host which runs a virtual Sophos UTM 9.4 appliance a VLAN-aware device?
b. Is the virtual Sophos UTM 9.4 appliance the DHCP server of VLAN 2 on the virtual VLAN 2 network as well as with the physical VLAN 2 network? Or, is there another DHCP server for the physical VLAN 2 network?
c. Since the physical devices on VLAN 2 communicate with each other, I believe that the PVID of VLAN 2 port members is set to 2. How about on the virtual VLAN 2, is the PVID also set to 2?
