I'm new at this so I appologise if this is something basic that I've overlooked.
I've set up an HP 2626 switch with 2 port-based VLANs but I cannot get the internal routing to work correctly.
VLAN2 has only port 1 as "untagged" and 2-24 "Auto". The default VLAN1 has all ports "untagged" except for port 1 "Auto".
Switch IP = 192.168.4.1/24
VLAN2 IP = 192.168.3.1/24
A client connected in each VLAN has static IP and the appropriate switch/VLAN IP as the default gateway.
"VLAN2 Client" can only ping it's GW (192.168.3.1). If I put a static route into "VLAN2 Client" (XP-Pro "route add 192.168.4.0 mask 255.255.255.0 192.168.4.1") everything works fine. I can ping all the IP addresses that I have set up from both clients.
Why is this so? Shouldn't it's default GW (192.168.3.1) be enough? I don't know that the "VLAN2 Client" supports 802.1Q or even if that should matter when putting the static route into the client works.
The "show ip route" command displays:
