Thanks for all the help, it's really appreciated. I did switch back to trunk from access but it turns out I had the native VLAN on that port set to 40, but really needed to have it set to VLAN 1, and allow VLAN 40, as per the Meraki engineer who assisted. Doing that immediately opened up that port and all devices on VLAN 40 can now see each other I did not realize that the native VLAN setting is for management purposes. Lack of networking knowledge on my part but I'm really a database guy and had inherited this project as we no longer have a network guy Thanks again, feeling good . . . until the next crisis pops up 🙂
