Hi there,
I was hoping you could help me figure out an issue. I'm using N4032 stack as a core switch with all the vlans and default gateways configured. I've enabled ip routing on the switch and set the route to the backbone router. So the connection is as follows:
n4032 ---------------- backbone_router
te1/0/19 ether1
When I ping to the backbone router uplink interface on the switch (interface vlan 20) I am able to get a reply. However if I ping the management interface (interface vlan 280) I get TTL expired in transit message.

I tested connecting a PC to te1/0/1 port on the switch setting it to an access vlan 280 and I am able to ping the PC, which indicates that inter-vlan routing is working.
So any ideas as to why I can't ping the vlan interfaces on the switch except for one?
