L3/L2 Issues on Various MS switches...

More an more lately, across multiple Clients I support, I am seeing issues with devices connected to Meraki Switches running L3.  Most cases, I'm noticing that devices can't communicate beyond the L3 interface on the core switch.  They can ping things on the same vlan, even their default gateways, but not beyond.  Reboots of the device, the Meraki switch or even the local firewall don't work, but if I readdress the device to a different IP, it works fine.  When I go back to the original IP the problem returns.  There's no duplicate IP.  I can confirm the ARP table reflects only 1 MAC with the IP (no duplicate IPs, and of course when I readdress, the original IP is no longer pingable.  This all started appearing a few months ago.  I have a ticket open with Meraki support, but they are stumped too.

Have you set a trunk port for that VLAN so that it can escape the core? We have a VLAN which only exists on our core switches, and thus isn't tagged anywhere. Those devices in that VLAN can't get out of the switch to the gateway or beyond.

Kind of a big deal

Do you have an example of how the topology is?

I haven't seen that myself.  I mostly have customers running MS225, MS250, MS350-24X, and MS410-16 in layer 3 mode.  These are all running current stable images, but I haven't seen that issue regardless.

 

What model switch is this?  Is it stacked?

 

You don't have a duplicate IP with the client.  Any chance something is using the same IP address as the switch?
