M5300 Static Routing
Happy Wednesday. Looking for a bit of guidance
Looking to be able to split some traffic and send in different directions. Setting the static route on the switch works exactly how it is suppose to if the switch is off the network. Moment I put the switch back on the network that route no longer works.
M5300 VLAN IPs 120,777,899
120= 10.120.103.250/22
777= 10.200.77.121/24
899= 10.200.99.120/24 VLAN (back to the rest of the network)
Static Route 10.58.12.96/27 next hop 10.200.77.120
Port 1 PVID 777 (Members1,777,120) out to VPN device 10.200.77.120
Port 2 PVID 120 (Members 1,120,777) My PC
Port 49 PVID 1 (1-4093) Trunk Port back to Core Switch
So hook up VPN device to Port 1 and my laptop to Port 2. Give myself a static IP 10.120.100.50/22.with 10.120.103.250 as my gateway Cool works fine, I can access the VPN Device with 0 trouble
Hook up my trunk port and connect back to the rest of the network, and that static path no longer works, even with my PC still having the M5300 10.120.103.250 as my gateway.
I am at a lost here. Need to be able to send traffic out to that VPN Device while being on the network. Believe it has to do with STP as I see that change in the log when I hook up the Trunk Port.
Thoughts, Comments, Concerns are welcome. More info can be provided if needed.
So for anyone that stumbles upon this later with the same ish type of setup. I did get it working
I got rid of my VLAN 777 routing. Instead I assigned that address to Port 1 on the switch within IP Routing IP Interface Config. Worked exactly how I needed to after that.
