Good day all
I have been looking around if this has been ask and answer it seems I can’t find any.

I have a problem with two extreme switch they can’t ping each other I have confing truck port 48 to connect each other but when I plung my laptop on access port 2 I can ping the switch.



Please see my configuration below maybe I’m doing wrong please assist.

Core sw

create vlan mangr tag 901

configure vlan mangr add ports 2 untagged

configure vlan mangr add ports 48 tag

configure vlan mangr ipaddress 10.248.111.2 255.255.255.0

enable ipforwarding vlan mangr



sw1



create vlan mangr tag 901

configure mangr add ports 48 tag

configure mangr add ports 2 untagged

configure mangr ipaddress 10.248.111.10/24

enable iproute 10.248.111.2 vr VR-Default

enable ipforwarding vlan mangr

configure iproute add 10.248.111.2

The invalid input comes from the fact that vr must be specified before the IP. Check that your ports 48 are tagged on both sides.

Hi Henrique

Thanks for the diagram , Sw1 need to use core-sw to communicate with other vlans. On sw1 I have configure mangr vlan with ip address and configure two vlans without assigning IP address and those vlans to get routing they must use core-sw

Sw3.5 # ping 10.248.111.2 vr vr-default ^
%% Invalid input detected at '^' marker.

Sw3.1 # show version Switch : 800618-00-08 Rev 8.0 BootROM: 1.0.1.7 IMG: 21.1.1.4
PSU-1 : Internal Power Supply
PSU-2 :

Thanks

These 3 statements are unnecessary since they are all on the same subnet.
enable iproute 10.248.111.2 vr VR-Default

enable ipforwarding vlan mangr

configure iproute add 10.248.111.2

I assume you connect port 48 of both switch links as a IEE 802.1Q trunk.

I would always enable loopback on the vlan on both switches. So that the vlan mangr is always active even when there are no active ports.

enable loopback-mode vlan mangr

Then you can try to ping again.

Hi Wong

The reason I added configure iproute add 10.248.111.2 on switch 2 I need switch to use core-sw to route out the traffic inside core-sw there is other vlans and IP address

Thanks

Hi Sivuyile, Without specifying the VR, the default VR for Ping on CLI is VR-Mgmt (Management VR) via dedicated management port. Best regards,
