Hi Drew,

Thank you for your correction. My mistake is thinking that Ping will have same behavior with SSH/Telnet.

Best regards,

The default virtual router for ping is VR-Default, not VR-Mgmt.

Hello Sivuyile

From what it looks like this is a straight Layer 2 VLAN. Both switches are on the same IP Subnet.

When you say they can't ping one another are you doing that from the CLI? If so what is the error you are seeing? Are you pining from the station on the switch?

When you ping from the CLI you need to put the VR in the ping. So use the command ping vr vr-d 10.248.111.2 and see what happens.

Thanks

Hi Paul

That is correct, i was ping from CLI... meaning if Im ping from CLI i must use this command like this ping 10.248.111.2 vr vr-default ??

Thanks
