Non-Default VLAN on Dell PowerConnect 6224 is Blocking All Traffic. Why?

So, I have two Dell PowerConnect 6224 switches (non-stacked). On both of the switches I've taken ports 8 and 9 and assigned them to VLAN 2. The other ends of those ports go to two Windows 2008 R2 Hyper-V host servers (Dell PowerEdge R710). Each server connects to the two switches via a teamed connection for redundancy and speed.

The servers have their IPs as 10.0.2.5 and 10.0.2.6 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0.

The VLAN interfaces on both switches have the IPs of 10.0.2.13 and 10.0.2.14 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 as well.

Subnet 10.0.2.0/24 is bound to the VLAN. The MAC addresses of the teamed connections as well as the VLAN interfaces (from the two switches) are also bound to the VLAN.

My problem is that the two servers are unable to ping each other, or the VLAN interface IPs. The switches are also unable to ping the VLAN interface IP of their companion switch and are also unable to ping the IPs of the servers.

I'd really appreciate it if someone could tell me what I'm missing. I'm starting to get really angry with these switches...

Can you provide your config lines for the interfaces?

You will need routing turned on to reach other vlans and subnets.

sample:

console# configure

console(config)# interface ethernet eXX

console(config-if)# switchport mode access

console(config-if)# switchport access vlan XXX

console(config-if)# end

page 360 has the vlan configuration options in this User Guide for the 62xx switch.

Hi Willy, I'm pretty sure I've done everything that the guide has listed. How do I list out the config lines so I can copy/paste them here? What's the command?

console# show run

and or

console# show interfaces detail ethernet XX

Also for routing you can enable routing using this command.

console> enable

console# config

console(config)# ip routing

To enable routing for the VLAN, run this command

console(config)#interface vlan 2

console(config-if-vlan2)#routing

console(config-if-vlan2)#exit

Here is a good document that goes over VLAN routing.

You will need to look at setting up a new unused VLAN with a /30 subnet (or something available) to both ends of your trunk between switches. Along with static routes for the VLANs/Subnets to direct traffic across the trunk in either direction. This will enable traffic to move between the 2 switches.

This would probably be a good time to say that I'm not smart enough to make that happen...

Here is a cheat sheet on subnets.

Also take a look at this post with a similar topic.  This is what we would be looking at setting up.

Hi sid-tokyo,

How are you testing it? Are you testing from the switch to the servers or from server to server? Are they on the same VLAN?

July 1st, 2020 18:00

DELL-Josh Cr,

Thanks for your reply.

Yes, I'm testing it from Switch to Server. I can able to ping switch and my wireless device which is attached to the switch from server, but I could not able to ping server from switch. Is there any other setting which I have to set in Dell switch?

 

Thanks & Regards,

Sid

DELL-Josh Cr,

Thanks for your reply.

Also I want to ask you one more thing that. Can you please tell me how to use Wireshark app on Dell S3048-ON Switch? If you tell me the setting for the switch I can able to see the issue from Wireshark app. 

 

 

Thanks & Regards,

Sid
