Vlan – Cannot ping or SSH into new Catalyst 2960-CX switch from the server VLAN (1)

managementsshswitchingswitchportvlan

I recently setup a Cisco Catalyst 2960-CX switch at work (I'm a SysAdmin at a SMB). Our workstations use VLAN 3, but our servers use VLAN 1. The management IP of the new switch (in VLAN 3) is 192.168.3.253

I can ping it and SSH to it from the workstation VLAN (VLAN 3), but not the server VLAN (VLAN 1). How can I fix this? We are using a ROAS ("router on a stick") setup for the VLANs. I can ping everything else to/from VLAN 1 to/from VLAN 3.

Here is the "show run brief" of the switch:

ip default-gateway 192.168.2.1

It has no interface (or route) to 192.168.2.1, so you have no default route. Point your default-gateway to something that exists in 192.168.3.0/24 [vlan3].
