Thanks I will check these things out. I am using laptops and rack servers all Dell. Not a lot of devices. Very simple setup. And yes the firmware needs to be updated. I am going to get on that. Just have to finish this other project first. I will also change the switchport mode. And let you know what I find.
This should be a simple routing issue on 6224. Just trying to get a route set between vlan 40 and vlan 50. Ping is intermittent sometimes it goes through and sometimes it is 50% and sometimes it gives me destination unreachable when just trying to ping the IP address of the neighboring VLAN. Here is the config, basically right out of the doc:  console#show running-config !Current Configuration: !System Description "PowerConnect 6224P, 2.2.0.3, VxWorks5.5.1" !System Software Version 2.2.0.3 ! configure vlan database vlan  40,50 vlan association subnet 192.168.40.0 255.255.255.0 40 exit stack member 1 4 exit ip address 192.168.1.242 255.255.255.0 ip default-gateway 192.168.1.254 ip routing interface vlan 40 routing ip address  192.168.40.1  255.255.255.0 exit interface vlan 50 routing     ip address  192.168.50.1  255.255.255.0 exit username "admin" password a9e1a678801c5f9441f778a53bca9acf level 15 encrypted ! interface ethernet 1/g4 switchport mode general switchport general pvid 40 no switchport general acceptable-frame-type tagged-only switchport general allowed vlan add 40 exit ! interface ethernet 1/g5 switchport mode general switchport general pvid 40 no switchport general acceptable-frame-type tagged-only switchport general allowed vlan add 40 exit ! interface ethernet 1/g8 switchport mode general switchport general pvid 40     no switchport general acceptable-frame-type tagged-only switchport general allowed vlan add 40 exit ! interface ethernet 1/g9 switchport mode general switchport general pvid 50 no switchport general acceptable-frame-type tagged-only switchport general allowed vlan add 50 exit snmp-server community public rw ipaddress 192.168.1.241 e
