Hi,

arp  request is sent on directly connected neighbours in the same vlan, for other vlan hosts you'll have  only arp entry for default-gateway.

do u think putting an ip address on sw from each vlan will solve the issue ??

Hi,

in that case then if the devices are directly connected and on corresponding vlan then yes you'll see output in the arp cache after communicationg with them.
