It’s been a long day.

I am trying to replace a old DLink switch with a PC 6224. I have configured 6 VLan’s, 68,69,70,71,210,206. The 210 & 206 (I know, it’s a public IP range. We use NAT and it isn’t an issue right now) will be removed shortly, but my first goal is getting this switch working. I am basically trying to mirror the config of the old switch for now, then I will tweak once it’s working.

I configured the switch off line with 2 laptops. Everything appeared to be working so I plugged it in today and swung over hubs and servers on to it. Everything on the LAN seems to be working, I can ping, tracert follows the expected paths, grab IP from DHCP server, etc. But I am unable to access the internet.

Our firewall sits on the 210 VLAN, it’s ip is 10.1.210.1. So I add a default route to point to the firewall. I can ping Google now, but 90% of the packets time out.

After an hour of troubleshooting and changes, I decide to remove the default route pointing to the firewall and change it to another router on the other side of the building. Its default route is pointing to the firewall and has other routes pointing to the VLAN IP Interfaces.  It works, but it is slow. This makes no sense to me and I finally gave up after 6 hours and put the old switch back in.

Sorry for the long story. Below is my running config of the 6224. Can anyone see anything that may cause this? Any other hints?

Thanks!
