MX68 not arping Cisco switch

[Muxie2007]

This is really basic but confusing me. I have an MX68 connected to my cisco 4500 switch for testing. I trunked my ISP subnet all the way to the Cisco switch and connected the mx68 to it. On the mx side, I gave it a public IP on the wan1 port in the ISP subnet, on the switch side, it is an access port in isp vlan. Issue is, I don't see the mx68 MAC added on the switch side neityne is internet available on on the mx68. What am I doing wrong?

MX----acess--SW---trunk---Router-----Fortigate-----Internet

Can't help you there but I was wondering which firmware is your MX68 running? The minimum firmware version is 14.32 which doesn't even exist in beta.

Your best bet for this type of config is to setup the switch port going to the router as access vlan X.  Use a VLAN you don't use for other stuff.  Then setup the port going to the MX as access with that same VLAN you used above.  Then you should be good.

I cantc because the trunk is an uplink with over 10 vlans on it

If you plug a PC into that same access port with the same IP configuration - can it access the Internet and perform name resolution?

I should try this when I am at work.

UPDATE:

I can see the MAC address of the MX now no my Cisco switch. The issue was a stipid one. I have forgotten to add the vlan of the ISP on the Cisco switch. BUT, i still see no internet even when i directly connect a laptop. I did a ping to the gateway from the laptop

I see the MAC address all the way to the router

I resolved the issue. Very simple one and dump stupid. I had not added the access VLAN on the switch itself
