Can't ping OS6850

[jc_316]

My laptop is connected directly to port 2/1 on the OmniSwitch 6850. I ping the ip address assigned to the vlan, but I only get timeouts. Would anyone be able to give me some ideas to troubleshoot?

Setup:
Laptop is connected directly using ethernet cable to port 2/1 and console cable to the console port.

What is the IP of the laptop? Do you use there also a public IP 182.168...?
Can you ping from the switch to the laptop?

[Gleylancer]

182.168.x.x is not a private IP Space. Please change to 192.168.x.x

[jc_316]

Thank you silvio and Gleylancer - I appreciate you both looking into this for me
The solution was to set the ip address on the windows laptop as follows:

Go to Ethernet settings in windows (can search for "Ethernet settings") -> Make the following updates to IP settings:
IPv4

Manual
IP Address: (ip address to assign to laptop)
182.168.90.102
Subnet prefix length: (number of subnet mask bits)
16
Gateway: (ip address of vlan)
182.168.90.100
DNS (i used dummy values):
1.1.1.2
Alternate DNS (i used dummy values):
1.1.1.3

like written: it is not a good idea to use public ip addresses in your private environment (only if this addresses are your own).

[Gleylancer]

Do -NOT- use a public IP space. You will run into so many problems and security issues, I don't even know where to begin.
