Hi Emad,

The config you posted does not show dot1q configured. It shows ISL
encapsulation on both switches. So I guess you are saying that you have
changed the config but you have not yet posted the update, correct?

What I was talking about is that in your original post, you have
configured 20.1.1.1 as the IP address of SVI Vlan2.
And a few lines later you configure a default-gateway with the same IP
address (20.1.1.1).

This excerpt below is from your original post:

interface Vlan1
 no ip address
 shutdown
!
interface Vlan2
 ip address 20.1.1.1 255.255.255.0

interface Vlan3
 ip address 30.1.1.1 255.255.255.0
!
ip default-gateway 20.1.1.1

I think the problem is that you don't want the native vlan (2) and the
SVI on the same vlan.

HTH

Jonathan,
I changed the encapsulation to DOT1Q
And I changed the native VLAN because I want the untagged traffic to go
as vlan 2 traffic as it is connected to the DOWN-SW which is carrying
only traffic of vlan 2.
I think I do need the gateway on the L3 switch (UP-SW) but I don't
understand ur words about

" On UP-SW, you certainly don't want your own IP address configured as
the default gateway, as you have done below."

Because I only configured one gateway!!!!

Simply I need DOWN-SW to e able to Ping the vlan 3 interface IP which is
30.1.1.1

Can u help me in this!!!

BTW , I removed the gateway from the UP-SW without any effect

Regards

On UP-SW, you certainly don't want your own IP address configured as the
default gateway, as you have done below.

If it is a simple design, why are you changing the native vlan?

And I think that native vlan is for dot1q and has no effect on isl.

Folks,
I have a very simple design I configured it many times before but now
suddenly it is not working ,
I have two 3550 switches and I'm just trying to have them working as one
contain only vlan 2 (as edge switch) and the other one have another vlan
(vlan 3) but acting as Layer3 which routes between the two vlans , u
will find below the configurations of the two switches and as a test I
tried to ping from the down switch to the up switch vlan 3 interface but
no ping at all which lead to If I connected two PCs to these two
different vlans , I can't ping too
