Initial setup on X440-g2-24p Can't ping between devices with static ip's on ports 2 and 3 (or any others)

Initial setup, Out of Box configuration... Using the default VLAN, I can't ping between two statically set ips on devices attached to ports 2 and 3. (or any other two ports)
I have:
configure vlan default add ports 1-28
configure vlan default ipaddress 192.168.10.15 255.255.255.0
enable ip forwarding vlan default
configure iproute add default 192.168.10.1
configure bootprelay add 192.168.10.14 vr VR-Default
enable bootprelay ipv4 vlan Default

The devices attached to ports 2 and 3 are windows 7 boxes with ips 10.16 and 10.17. Port 1 is the uplink to another switch.

This looks like my problem... Although I have Patch 1-5, I still see:
disable flooding all_cast port 1
On ports (1->28)

EXOS ver 21.1.1.4
Patch 1-5
I'll check out the link. Thanks!

Regarding patch1-5, it sounds like there are some special circumstances spelled out in the Field Notice that I didn't see. I think this section explains what you experienced:
With patch 1-5, if the switch boots and the following conditions are true, ZTP can still disable flooding after it can resolve extremecontrol (DNS) and can connect to EMC (Netsight)
  1. Switch/Controller can DNS resolve "extremecontrol[.searchdomain]", "extremecontrol.extremenetworks.com" or "devices.extremenetworks.com"
  2. If one of these is responding, then try to connect to it
  3. Flooding is then disabled

Glad to hear that you were able to get this working. Hopefully it wasn't too frustrating.
Also glad to see that you joined The Hub just to post this question - welcome to the community!

Ha! Came here to report that I got it working with exactly this command. Thanks to the link you handed off! It looks like that patch 1-2 bug is still sorta there in patch 1-5. It is switching now though! Thanks!
