Hi Folks
I have an access L2 switch to which I have connected an ESX NICs with 4 access ports. I see its MACs on the ports and the ARP entry on the L3 switch. Why can I only ping the server from L3 switch but not from the L2?
Hi Jon
Yes I can ping the server from L3 as I mentioned in my post. The management IP of the L2 switch differs from the VLAN on which is the ESX. Server has the gateway of the SVI on the L3.
