Hi

When you're trying to ping from hosts attached to 3750 to hosts attached to 4500, are these hosts in vlan 10?
If not, can you test just from host to host in vlan 10?

What is the default gateway of hosts in both switches?

Thanks
Francesco

thank you for your fast repaly
host in switch 4500 in vlan30 default gateway 192.168.30.100
host in switch 3750 in vlan10 default gateway 10.40.10.150


from host in vlan30 i can ping 10.40.10.150 but i cannot ping host in vlan10

Hi,

 

on 3750 switches no need to configure SVI, if you configured SVI for remote accessthan  update host gateway connected hosts on 3750  to  10.40.10.100 and don't forget to configure the "ip default-gateway 10.40.10.100 "

From vlan 30, sure you can ping 3750 vlan 10 interface because your 4500 has an IP into vlan 10 and knows how to reach 10.40.10.150.

 

The invert isn't true because when hosts try to reach vlan 30 hosts, they arrive on your 3750 svi and this switch has no clue how to reach vlan 30. What you can do very easily is to add a static route on your 3750 to allow hosts to talk to each others.

The static route on 3750 switch should looks like:

ip route 192.168.30.0 255.255.255.0 10.40.10.100

 

Can you test and let us know please?

 


Thanks

I added as you told me
ip route 192.168.30.0 255.255.255.0 10.40.10.100
but I cannot ping

From the 3750 switch itself, can you ping 4500 IP 192.168.30.100 ?
Can you make sure ip routing is enabled on your 3750?
Can you share a diagram please?

Thanks
Francesco

Can you make sure ip routing is enabled on your 3750? yes its enable

 

PC1------------Switch 3750---------(interface trunk 1/0/8 )Switch 4500---PC1

 

 Switch 4500:

vlan10 

ip address 10.40.10.150

 

vlan20

ip address 192.168.30.100

 vlan 30

ip address 192.168.1.100

                                         

Switch 3750:

vlan10

ip address 10.40.10.100

  

 

now at least I want users in Switch 3750 (vlan10) ping users in  Switch 4500 (any vlan).

Hello

Hi,

will you please change the DG of your hosts in Vlan10 to 10.40.10.100, ie. int Vlan10 address at switch4500 instead of 10.40.10.150. If your trunk between both swithes is set up correctly this should get the required result.

Best regards,

Antonin

Please share the diagram and where is the host. 

 

I could see an interface under VRF

interface FastEthernet1
ip vrf forwarding mgmtVrf
ip address 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0
speed auto
duplex auto

 

Normally we cannot reach an IP inside interface from outside untill the interface under VRF is directly connected to other switch. 

 

PC2-----------InterfaceVRF-Switch A---------Switch B---PC1

                                                    |

                                                    |

                                                    |

                                                    |

                                               PC3

In this case PC1 cannot ping PC2, however, PC1 can ping PC3.
