Virtual Interface is not reachable

Hello,

We saved the config and upgraded (The version is SY10) our Cisco Catalyst 6807 XL switch yesterday. The configuration is same, but we cannot reach our switch with management IP. It can not be pinged. We have multiple switches sitting in the same vlan, all these switches are accessible except this switch. We can reach it from console port and it handles all the traffic and working properly from the same vlan(management vlan) and other vlans as well. We checked the config of the management vlan and default gateway, everything seems right like other switches. All of the vlans are also active in this core switch. We tried to downgrade it to previous version(The version is SY8) but the remains the same. We compared running config of the core router with the saved config, everything looks same. I controlled the logs, and they also don't show any problem. There is no acces list which block Ip adresses. We tried to change also management Ip address of the core switch, the issue still remains same. What can be the problem, I am waiting for your helps. Thanks in advance.

Thank you Guys for your help . Issue got fixed for our Core switch.

 

Resolution: As I said above we are using 6807-XL as Layer 2 distribution switch . When you reboot 6807-XL it automatically enables the “IP routing” after reboot . Since IP routing got enabled and no layer 3 route was configured , switch was not able to reach layer 2 gateway. We shut down the layer 3 routing with command “No IP routing “ automatically Layer 2 gateway of SVI started talking to distribution switch. 

Finally happy ending 

So glad this issue solved 

Have a nice summer
