Hi,

I have recently started working woth L3 HP switches and I would like ask for your advice. We have to core switches directly connected which support multiple vlans, routing and ospf. We are planning to set up a 3rd new switch which will support vlans with ip addresses that are a subset of the ip addresses of one of the existing vlans i.e.

sw1- several vlans

sw2- vlans with ip addresses 10.32.0.0 255.255.224.0

sw3- vlans with ip addresses 10.32.160.0 255.255.252.0

sw2 and sw3 connected to sw1

how can I create a static route so that sw1 will decide the correct route in each case:

something is destined to 10.32.160.3 will go to sw3

something destined to 10.32.0.3 will go to sw2

 

thank you in advance

if you are using ospf on all the switches you wouldn't need a static route for this, the switches would work it out on its own

Hi again,

I've been trying to work this out with ospf and I am doing some tests with spare switches we have but so far the results are not the expected. I cannot ping ip addresses on the 2 switches sharing the same subnets, the main switch does not seem to know the route. Below, I am copying the ospf settings on the 3 switches hoping you will see anything wrong and help me. The main and the second switch they communicate fine already.

main switch:

router ospf

Hi can i ask why you have so many areas??

 

i would only expect to see something like this in the a fairly simple config, just change the router id and ip addresses

 

Vlan 10

name "data"

untagged a1-a24

ip helper-address 10.10.1.1

ip address 10.10.10.254 255.255.255.0

exit

Vlan 20

name "voice"

tagged a1-a24

ip helper-address 10.10.1.1

ip address 10.10.20.254 255.255.255.0

exit

ip router-id 1.1.1.1

router ospf

area backbone

redistribute connected

enable

exit

Vlan 10

ip ospf 10.10.10.254 area backbone

exit

Vlan 20

ip opsf 10.10.20.254 area backbone

exit
