Why would you connect a port configured on the .4 network to a switch on the
..6 network, unless that port is actually one of your VLAN ports???

Based on the drawing you emailed me, and which I may suggest to post it to
your website so others can follow the thread, here was my reply:
___________________________
I assume the default gate on the Dell Power Connect 5324 (172.20.4.33) is
172.20.4.1 in the middle of the drawing, but you have it shown twice??? You
should have just left it in the middle and connected a line to the boiler
room. Make sense? Drawings can make or break the understanding of an
infrastructure, hence my original confusion.

I assume the DHCP server at the top with the two scopes has connected with
an IP address on both the .4 and the .9 network and it's default gateway is
172.20.4.1.

The power connect 3048 (finance) has an IP of 172.20.9.4, but why does it
have a gateway of 4.1?? If the IT 5324 switch has the VLANs and one of the
VLANs is .9, then since it is connected to that port, it's gateway should be
9.1, assuming the VLAN port you configured on the 5324 is 9.1. Make sense?

Since the 5324 switch is directly connected to the .9 network, there is no
need to configure a static route to get to it since it is aware of it,
assuming you configured it properly. Make sense?

Did you post this to the groups too? I should post this to as well to keep
anyone else following the thread a chance to jump in and comment.
