I have been testing the equipment (X460 summit) for v6-compatibility and I'm having a problem with the inter-vlan routing. Now the configuration should be right.
-
The address space is allocated to both VLANs.
-
The router [vlan interfaces] has it's own address (default gateway)
-
Both vlans have the "enable ipforwarding ipv6 vlan x" command configured.
-
Both hosts (windows PCs) have their ipv6 settings correct. (even the default gateway!)
Everything works perfectly inside a single VLAN. I can ping from host A to host B no problem. However when these two hosts are under a different VLANs - The ping from host A (VLAN A) goes all the way through to the default gateway, or the routers address of VLAN B, but it never reaches HOST B. Now I did a beautiful illustration of this with paint if the text is a bit unclear.
Also on the router side, both VLANS goes as tagged to the switch's port. The switch has both VLANS configured tagged on the uplink port and VLAN_A going untagged to HOST_A, and VLAN_B untagged to HOST_B. So no problem there either.
I understand it's a long shot but maybe someone has dealt with something similar. I didn't find the answer by googling so I thought I'd ask here. Thanks in advance.
