There was indeed just a single uplink to the MX84 at the time of the issue. I connected the 2960 to the MX84 on a separate port just to test, it made no difference. It would pass VLAN2 traffic on the switches that it wouldn't pass VLAN1 traffic on, which was the most interesting bit. The MX84 has been running without issue for about a year. I'm pulling the Cisco SB switch as they are changing software vendors. I'm putting in a stack of 2960's for the main LAN, VLAN2 will most likely stay on an HP but we'll see what port utilization looks like after the 3x 2960's are installed. All the HPE switches are using 802.1D, not RSTP (802.1W). I unfortunately don't have access to the configuration on the Cisco SB switch, since it was vendor provided. That's another reason I'm inclined to punt it once they are out of the picture.
