Switch not responding to PING

Hi have two small MS120-8 switches setup with management on VLAN2 IP addresses are 192.168.2.2 and 192.168.2.3 respectively gateway and DNS for both are identical.  Now I can ping 192.168.2.3 but I cannot ping 192.168.2.2

 

  • Firewall rules between my subnet and the management VLAN are not the problem I have double checked that.

  • Duplicate IP's are not the issue as I have turned off the switch to see if another device replies and I have checked my dashboard.

    The uplink switch is also configured to allow all VLAN traffic i.e. trunk with native VLAN1 and allowing all.

 

I am about to run a packet capture but just thought I would check to see if I am missing something simple.

 

Thanks!

I have the feeling this is a DOA, the dashboard is seeing this switch correctly however its listing clients on port 43...... It's only an 8 Port switch.

Factory reset it in desperation?

Can one of the switches ping the other switch (they are both in the same subnet, so this should be a very simple case)?

Have u tried going on the local status page of the device? Is this page reachable?

I have factory reset and still doesn't work. I can ping from another switch which is odd and status page works if I am on that VLAN.

 

I have triple checked the VLAN tagging on the uplink siwthc and have had a co-worker check it as well. 

 

The switch is also only happy if I use 8.8.8.8 for the DNS even though the other switches are happy if I use are internal DNS....
