Routing Question
Hi,
I`m trying to route traffic on our switch to another switch but i`m struggling and need some help.
On switch 1 i have data vlan, VLAN 10: 10.0.10.0/24, and i need to connect to another network (switch 2) on a partners site, subnet 10.23.31.0/24 on gateway 10.23.31.254 through port 50 which is connected via a fibre.
I have added a static route on our switch 10.23.31.0 next hop ip 10.23.31.254 but this is not working. Do i need to set up a vlan on switch 1?
Any help will be most appriciated.

Yes, correct!
You need create new routing VLAN that include port 50 that connect to partners side. Set an IP address same subnet as 10.23.31.0 for this routing VLAN. Then enable globle routing on Switch.
And in this scenario, you need not set static route for partners subnet, it will reach parters via directly connected route table.
Hope it helps!
