Hi, first be sure your hub/switch supports vlan feature.Then it need to be configured. Once you have done this let me know of the status. -----Original Message----- From: Manish Jain [mailto:manish.jain.85@xxxxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, September 09, 2005 3:44 PM To: VLAN Subject: [VLAN] Unable to ping between different vlans Hi, I created a VLAN with vlan-id vlan10 using the utitlity vconfig which uses the module 802.1q. This vlan was configured as 172.19.0.1 <http://172.19.0.1> with subnet mask 255.255.0.0 <http://255.255.0.0> . This vlan was implemented over eth0. Now i have a laptop which i connected to eth0 via a hub. This laptop was configured as : ifconfig eth0 172.19.0.4 <http://172.19.0.4> netmask 255.255.0.0 <http://255.255.0.0> up route add 172.19.0.4 <http://172.19.0.4> 172.19.0.1 <http://172.19.0.1> with the objective of making my vlan10 as the gateway of this machine. Now this laptop is unable to ping the supposed gateway 172.19.0.1 <http://172.19.0.1> and vice-versa.
