Hello,
Hoping someone can help out with this very odd issue and im sure its something i am overlooking.
We have just changed out our core router from a cisco 2821 to a brand new Meraki MS425 fiber switch that is running all of our layer 3 now. All switches that are directly connected to the Meraki are able to ping vlan 1 devices (servers) from the switch without any problems. However i have switches connected behind those and they cannot ping vlan 1 from the switch itself but the connected clients that are on various vlans can ping vlan 1 without any issues.
Normally i wouldnt pay this much mind but the radius server is on vlan 1 and i cannot use AAA authentication because it cannot communicate with the server. I have restarted the switch to see if that would resolve the issue and it does not.
Somethings i have found, the root bridges for my vlans are on what appears to be two different switches. Vlan 1 is set to our Meraki and the others are on another switch, i have tried researching but do not see or find anything that says this is the problem.
Any help or ideas are appreciated. FYI i am not a fan of this Meraki device but have to use it.
Thanks in advance.

I did not have the default gateway set on the switch so unless it was inside a tagged vlan it did not know where to route the data. Pointing my DG to the right place resolved my issue.
