Cross VLAN traffic issue

[davidltp80]

I am having trouble getting my dev environment working properly. I am unable to get my ESXi server to communicate with my Windows Server on a separate VLAN. From the diagram below I want DLESXi2 to route via DEVDLSRV1 (on DLESXi1).

I have tried assigning ip addresses to the vlan's, adding helper addresses, adding a static route to the 192.168.17.0/24, and also added vlan tag 17 to DLESXi2. All did not allow communication from the 17 network to DEVDLSRV1. Maybe I'm making this too complicated, but I would like for my server (DEVDLSRV1) to be the DHCP/DNS server and for all communication to the "Internet" (and also the Public_Network which is my business domain) to go through this server (This last part is not part of this forum).

Switch: Cisco 3550

My config file is as such:

no aaa new-model
ip subnet-zero
ip routing
ip name-server 192.168.3.237
ip name-server 192.168.3.238
!
vtp mode transparent
!

spanning-tree mode pvst
spanning-tree extend system-id
!
vlan internal allocation policy ascending
!
vlan 3
 name Public_Network
!
vlan 17
 name Private_Network_17
!

interface FastEthernet0/1
 switchport access vlan 3
 switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
 switchport trunk allowed vlan 3
 switchport mode access
 duplex full
 spanning-tree portfast
!

interface FastEthernet0/2
 switchport access vlan 3
 switchport mode access
 spanning-tree portfast
!

interface FastEthernet0/3
 switchport access vlan 3
 switchport trunk allowed vlan 3,17
 switchport mode access
 spanning-tree portfast
!

interface FastEthernet0/13
 switchport access vlan 17
 switchport mode access
 spanning-tree portfast
!

interface Vlan1
 no ip address
 shutdown
!
interface Vlan3
 no ip address
!
interface Vlan17
 no ip address
!
ip default-gateway 192.168.3.252
ip classless
ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 192.168.3.252
ip http server
!

Any help would be extremely appreciated.

You don't have IPs on any of your VLAN interfaces.(?)

[davidltp80]

I tried that before and the most I got was pinging to VLAN 17's ip address, nothing more.

I setup VLAN 3 with IP: 192.168.3.223/24

VLAN 17 with IP: 192.168.17.254/24

and still nothing.

To route, the router will need interface IPs.

Normally, you hosts will have the router's IP at their gateway.  Do they?

interface FastEthernet0/3
 switchport access vlan 3
 switchport trunk allowed vlan 3,17
 switchport mode access <<<<<<<< I believe this should be Trunk mode 

And in the trunk allow only 3,17 

Hope you try this and reply with the result
