I have two simple VLAN 100 and 101. I connected 2 pc . one in VLAN 100 with static ip 10.1.100.11/24 and gateway 10.1.100.61 and other one on vlan 101 with ip 10.1.101.51/24 gateway 10.1.101.254. I can ping respective gateway from both the pcs. My Switch can ping both PCs. Switch can ping everything. But PC 1 can not ping to PC 2 and vice versa. There is no firewall running on any pc.
Here is a Show ip route display.

127.0.0.0/8 reject static 0 0
127.0.0.1/32 lo0 connected 1 0

Any clue why PC 1 can not ping PC2 ?

Any help is much appreciated .

Hi thanks ,
SO I removed management vlan 100 from config. (No management vlan 100) now My PC from VLAN 101 can ping PC of VLAN 100 BUT I have one problem. I put DHCP server on 10.1.100.11 on vlan 100 with scope 10.1.101.101- 150 /24 with gateway 10.1.101.254 (Vlan ip of vlan 101) I am not able to receive dhcp on vlan 101 . I can see on DHCP server that ip has been issued to MAC address of pc on vlan 101 but somehow those PCs on vlan 101 can not receive any dhcp ip. But if I give any static ip (10.1.101.101/24 with gateway 10.1.101.254 ) they work ok. Somehow DHCP response is not showing up on vlan 101 . I have correct helper address configured there. also on dhcp I can see ip has been given to those vlan101 pcs.

Any help is appreciated Sir.

Hi

Make sure your DHCP Server has a Gateway:10.1.100.61

Then assign a static IP to one PC in Vlan101, and try from that PC to ping the DHCP server.

When its ok, they you can try to restart the DHCP service and test again.

Good Luck !!!

Hi ,

I already tried that. Its not working. When I do static IP it works but DHCP can not be obtained on vlan 101. Infact on dhcp logs I can see ip address being negotiated and issued to mac address of pc on vlan 101 but some how no pc on vlan 101 can receive any ip. Please help.

Hi

Check if you have other DHCP service running in Vlan100.

Also i advice you to attach the logs here, and if possible the DHCP scope configuration with the DHCP server IP config.

Good Luck !!!
