it is a core functionality of them. My primary suggestion is to make sure you
talk to the correct people at dell. There Is a specific team of people that has
expertise in the higher end switches. Don’t accept dell’s typical front end

<p class=MsoNormal>That's what we're trying now. Apparently, the tech support

If your switch ports are not tagged properly then traffic will not route <br>
across VLAN's. Also any downstream switches must also have the VLANS <br>
configured and uplink ports properly tagged as well. I'd start by <br>
getting two subnets talking to each other only on this layer3 switch <br>
before complicating it by adding downstream switches.<br>
