  Are you using an access port for the router connection to the switch.  If you are using a trunk port this may cause this behavior. I did not see it in your post.  I use my SG300-28 in layer 3 mode and have the router setup on an access port.  The default port setting is trunk. You want to force the switch to do layer 3 rather than pass it to the router.   ... View more

OK, here is the telnet version of my config.  I was thinking I could modify it using telnet.  I don't see the route statements.  This is the same config as shown above in the screen captures.  Can I add route statements?   switchd254bb# show run config-file-header switchd254bb v1.4.10.6 / R800_NIK_1_4_214_020 CLI v1.0 set system queues-mode 4 file SSD indicator encrypted @ ssd-control-start ssd config ssd file passphrase control unrestricted no ssd file integrity control ssd-control-end cb0a3fdb1f3a1af4e4430033719968c0 ! vlan database vlan 2,10 exit voice vlan oui-table add 0001e3 Siemens_AG_phone________ voice vlan oui-table add 00036b Cisco_phone_____________ voice vlan oui-table add 00096e Avaya___________________ voice vlan oui-table add 000fe2 H3C_Aolynk______________ voice vlan oui-table add 0060b9 Philips_and_NEC_AG_phone voice vlan oui-table add 00d01e Pingtel_phone___________ voice vlan oui-table add 00e075 Polycom/Veritel_phone___ voice vlan oui-table add 00e0bb 3Com_phone______________ bonjour interface range vlan 1 hostname switchd254bb username user password password ip telnet server ! interface vlan 1 no snmp trap link-status ! interface vlan 2 name "vlan2" ip address 192.168.2.254 255.255.255.0 no snmp trap link-status ! interface vlan 10 name "vlan10" ip address 192.168.10.2 255.255.255.252 no snmp trap link-status ! interface gigabitethernet1/1 switchport mode access ! interface gigabitethernet1/2 switchport mode access switchport access vlan 10 ! interface gigabitethernet1/3 switchport mode access switchport access vlan 2 ! exit ...

I made a little progress.  I plugged the SG500x-24 switch into my SG300-28 layer 3 switch and let it DHCP an IP address.  The SG500x switch setup default routing to my layer 3 switch as denoted in the captions below.  What I want to do now is change the SG500x switch to match my SG300 layer 3 switch by using 192.168.0.254 instead of 192.168.0.92 which was set by DHCP. The SG500x switch is going to my daughter's work so it will not be in the same location as my SG300-28 switch but I would like them setup the same way.  I have the option to change the IP from DHCP to static which I hope I can assign the new IP 192.168.0.254.  The possible issue is I already use that IP on my SG300-28 layer 3 switch.  The other thing I need to do is delete the default route and plug in 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 forward to 192.168.10.1/30 which is my router.  Do you think this will work?  Or am I going to need to telnet to fix this.  The good, using DHCP made the IP section start working again.   What I don't know is using 192.168.0.0 network instead of 192.168.1.0 is helping.  It could just be using DHCP. ...

Reset does not fix the IP stuff.  It is still broken after the reset.  I can change firmware and IP still does not work.  Is there something greater than reset? ... View more

That is my error.  I should have entered the default route   0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 with the next hop 192.168.10.1 which is the RV320 router IP   But now I can't enter anything under IP config.  My switch seems broken now. ... View more

Here are the web site commands issued when trying to add an IP address to a VLAN. I am trying to add 192.168.2.254/255.255.255.0 to vlan2.   http://192.168.1.254/cs596ob264/ipaddr/system_ipconfig_ipInterface_a.htm   http://192.168.1.254/cs596ob264/kubrick/closeDialog.html   Does this help?   ...

I realized I should have added the default route for the router VLAN.  My problem now seems that the IP section will not work any more.  If I try to assign a IP address to a VLAN now the browser comes back with the switch IP not responding.  The same thing now happens if I try to add a DHCP scope to VLAN1.  So I am thinking the IP part of this switch now does not work any more.  I have tried falling back to 2 older firmware's and the same thing happens.   A factory reset allows me to access the switch but as soon as I try assign anything in the IP section the switch breaks.   How do I fix my switch? ...

I block big ranges with ACLs.  If I need access to an IP address or range then I modify my ACL lists.  I think you are thinking about this too hard.  As far as testing rules it is going to be the same.  Using ranges and class address blocking is going to make you router faster.  I would rather block a class b than a 1000 IP addresses.  It is more efficient.  Over laps can be fixed if you need it. ...

These are pretty old with maybe 1 more year of support.  But I have 3 of them running at my daughter's house which run fine using 5 GHz.  You don't say whether you have them running 5 or 2.4 GHz.  You also don't say what the load is.  More info would help. ... View more

I superscope my IP blocks into networks.  It is the way I work.  Using a Class A block would block a lot more IPs than I would want to make a list of.  Lists to me are small scale. ... View more

You can use ACL to block IPs.  If you network the list of IPs then you can block them as a network. ... View more
