HP Procurve 2910 Inter VLAN routing partially working

hp-procurveroutingvlan

I'm in the middle of slowly trying to solve my inherited ip range issue.

Currently everything is on 100.100.100.x. I am slowly moving things over to a 10.12.x.x range. Currently my Watchguard firewall on 100.100.100.222 is doing my for users, I want to change so the Procurve on 100.100.100.79 does the routing instead.

The first stage has been to set up a second connection to the firewall on VLAN 99 10.12.99.1 so internet access works and I've got it working on VLAN 123.

Here is my vlan setup.

VLAN ID Name                 | Status     Voice Jumbo
------- -------------------- + ---------- ----- -----
1       DEFAULT_VLAN         | Port-based No    No
20      ISCSI                | Port-based No    No
99      DMZ                  | Port-based No    No
121     Client_PCs           | Port-based No    No
122     Production           | Port-based No    No
123     Servers              | Port-based No    No

I can ping between VLAN 1 and 123.
I can't ping between VLAN 122 and 123.

And last but not least the routing…

  172.16.230.0/24    ISCSI           20   connected            1          0

I can't get VLAN 122 and VLAN 123 to talk to each other, so I assume the route is wrong, but if I try to add a route…

ip route 10.12.2.0/24 10.12.3.254

I get this error.
10.12.3.254 can not be switch IP address and route gateway at the same time.

I must have something configured wrongly, but I can't work out what it is.

Thanks

A 2910 with activated ip routing routes from and to any VLAN that it has an IP address assigned in.

So, if a node can't reach one VLAN subnet from another it's likely not in the correct VLAN.

ip route 10.12.2.0/24 10.12.3.254 can't work since 10.12.2.0/24 is already connected locally and 10.12.3.254 is the switch itself - you can't tell it to route back to itself.

Additionally, 

ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.12.99.1
ip route 10.12.1.0 255.255.255.0 10.12.99.1
ip route 10.12.2.0 255.255.255.0 10.12.99.1
ip route 10.12.3.0 255.255.255.0 10.12.99.1
ip route 100.100.100.0 255.255.255.0 10.12.99.1

don't make sense. All these subnets are local and can't be routed elsewhere.

btw: firmware version 14.38 is ancient (before 2011 when we bought 2910s)...

PS: You're binding IP addresses to all VLANs, including iSCSI and DMZ - as stated above, the 2910 will route into and out of all these networks which is most surely not intended. You'll need to either remove these IP addresses and route/filter between these VLANs elsewhere or configure ACLs that allow the traffic you want while filtering everything else. Note that the 2910 doesn't allow VLAN ACLs, only port ACLs.
