Hi,
I have a stack of Force10 switches that I am trying to use for Layer3. From the documentation it appears that I only need to assign ip addresses to my VLANS and that will put them into Layer3 mode, and they they will begin passing traffic. Unfortunately for me this is not working. I am set up this way:
Net 1. vlan 2 Internet x.x.x.123/28 gateway x.x.x.113
Net 2. vlan 300 Internal 10.0.2.37/24
Host A. 10.0.2.48 gateway 10.0.2.37
from Host A
Ping 10.0.2.37 success
Ping x.x.x.123 success
ping x.x.x.113 fail
My routing table is very simple:
Gateway of last resort is x.x.x.113 to network 0.0.0.0
Destination Gateway Dist/Metric Last Change
----------- ------- ----------- -----------
*S 0.0.0.0/0 via x.x.x113, Vl 2 1/0 04:51:54
C 10.0.2.0/24 Direct, Vl 300 0/0 5w5d
C x.x.x.112/28 Direct, Vl 2 0/0 05:44:26
I have verfied connectivity from the switch to each network, and can ping hosts on both from the switch, but from Host A I cannot get past the switch. I seem to be missing something basic here.
