Connectivity between 3850 and wireless radio controller

[naznaqvi1]

We are connecting a remote warehouse to corporate office through wireless radio controllers. we connected corporate office controller to a 3750 and configured the port as trunk. we connected the remote controller to a new 3850 switch. we are unable to ping radio controllers or switches. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Is the link between the 2 devices up and running?

Did you configure the link on both 3750 and 3850 as trunk?

Can you post configs from both devices?

when I was connected to the wireless controller directly, I was able to ping them both so the connectivity between controllers is good. I think issue is on the switch side.

Config for the trunk port on 3750 is

LAN-B55-F3-R325-SW01#sh run int g1/0/1
Building configuration...

Current configuration : 348 bytes

interface GigabitEthernet1/0/1

Yes I created both links as trunk on 3850 and 3750.

Config for 3850 trunk port is as follows

interface GigabitEthernet1/0/48

description *** Connection to Radio Controller ***

switchport mode trunk

storm-control broadcast level 50.00

storm-control multicast level 50.00

auto qos trust dscp

The switches are just layer-2 with no IPs.  So, if there is no IP an the switches you can't ping them but if you can ping from one controller to the other through the switches than the connectivity is good.

The trunk configs are correct.

I am not able to ping controllers from the either switches.

[Reza Sharifi]

But do the switches have any IP configured on them?

If the switches don't have IPs you can't ping from them.
