VLAN issues - Cannot reach station on another vlan and switch

I am trying to create a vlan for management of my network devices here in the company and for some reason I can't connect to the vlan from my workstation.  I can ping the station from my SWITCH but not my workstation itself.

Please see attached text file for info.  Basically I can ping the management interface of my ASA from the Core switch it is plugged into as well as my switch in the office I am in, but NOT from my workstation connected to the switch I am on, which makes me think the issue is at my access switch level not higher up the chain.

Not sure if its relevant but both the core switch and my access switch are metro stacks.

Well, yes and no.  Its easier to make changes to an interface if you are not connected to that interface when you do it, plus you can't actually screw up the management interface by setting a firewall rule that would remove your management control (aside from removing it from the allowed connections as you mentioned above).

I am my own worst enemy when it comes to cisco and firewall configurations so I would rather allow myself a scenario where I could recover from something I did.

Thank you for your help Jon!
