Stratix 5700 Inter-VLAN Routing Issue

[Paul_SParticipantKarma: 15Rank: Padawan]

I am having trouble successfully setting up Inter-VLAN routing on a Stratix 5700 switch. I have researched multiple articles and have also watched the content provided by this site with no luck. The only idea I have left is that I can attribute it to not being able to enter a gateway address of 0.0.0.0 when setting up routing. Even trying to route using the simple setup described below is not working.

When I open up RSLinx and browse, even after adding the IP address of the PLC’s to the ETH adapter as per the video, RSLinx is saying it can see the device but then hits it with a question mark and red x.

From the switch CLI I can ping every single device and IP address so the issue has to be with the routing setup

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

I solved my own issue above and thought I would take the time to share my findings.

1. I did not have to configure Gateway Address in order for inter-VLAN routing to work

2. When attempting my configuration, I disconnected from my wireless network (using wired to connected to Stratix network). Apparently, this was not enough. Once I went into Network Connection Settings on my PC and completely ‘disabled’ the wireless adapter, only then was I able to ping the devices I had setup connected to different VLANs via my Ethernet connection

Hope this helps those struggling with the same issue.
