I am trying to configure a simple layer3 setup on stacked Force10 MXL switches.

I have my hosts on my different nets pointed to the stack for their default gateways, and I want my MXL stack to switch the packets at Layer 3 for connectivity among the subnets. The part that stumps me is why is my vlan 103 not communicating at all? I cannot even ping it from the MXL stack that has the vlan on it. This ought to be the simplest thing in the world, but it is failing. Anyone have an idea?
