OK, this was a weird one. I believe the switch was configured properly. In my troubleshooting, each time I received the wrong address on my Windows 8 client from my Windows Server 2012 DHCP server I would delete the DHCP lease before trying again. Each time I tried renewing the IP from the DHCP client or simply rebooting, I would get the same address on the wrong subnet and the lease would be recreated.
Finally, for giggles, I created a DHCP reservation on the subnet related to VLAN 11, and it worked! Then I deleted reservation and released the IP address. Then I renewed it again, and it grabbed the correct address!
So, apparently the DHCP server or the client was holding onto something I can't explain that caused it to get the wrong address. Very strange.
