can't ping ip of new switch
Hi,
I've setup a switch(2924xl), my 2 vlans are working fine. I am using hyperterminal to configure and setup an ip address for the switch. I have used ping in the hyperterm and was able to ping my new ip and ip of my other switches. However, when I used cmd command and ping my ip it says timeout but my other switch is pingable. i have compared my setup with other switch and they are all the same. any idea why?
thanks.

How many hops to both ?
Could be a routing cost issue.
Try a traceroute.

ip address x.x.x.x y.y.y.y
If your workstation is on vlan1, or a router that can route you to vlan1, you should be able to reach it.
