Hi DaneA,
There is default route configure for GW3 but not GW1.
Default route does not play a role here since both gateways are having 10.255.255.0/30
there .1 is on GW3 and .2 is ont GW3,
As it is on the same network no routing is require. Thus the purpose of vlan trunking is to make both switches to be the same L2 network for vlan 52.- native_vlanAug 14, 2019Aspirant
this seems to be related to my problem. Im not seeing how to get traffic out of a switch on a vlan to out the trunk to the rest of the network.

For trunk connections (direct single port, or LAG) you run an 802.1q VLAN mode, and tag all VLANs on this trunk connection. Same settings are required on both switches (for LAG and VLANs)
