I still think it's a route design issue and not necessarily a manufacturer's
issue. If the router has multiple NICs, what is the default gateway of that
router? Whatever router that is, should have a static route to the other
internal NICs if they are upstream. What type if firewall is it?

Can you re-do your drawing for a more quasi-logical (and I hate to use the
term 'logical' when talking about subnets) and their actual Ip addresses
similar to my drawing to get a clearer picture? Maybe that will help to
understand what direction and what Ips are where in relation to what device.
When depicting the VLANs on your switches, show them as networks (subnets)
as the "bar" shows a subnet in my drawing. Does that make sense?
