      Hi there..
      I'm new to networking so forgive me for any dumb question.

      I want to setup a Cisco layer 3 switch for internal routing, with a Virtual PFsense on two VMesxi host for redundancy (CARP)

      1 - I got the Carp working
      2 - I got the internal routing working (Cisco switch)
      3 - I could only get the  vlan 3 to connect to the internet.

      here is my configuration

      CISCO Core switch
      Vlan 3                            Vlan 12                      Vlan 15
      172.17.2.1/22              172.16.1.1                172.16.8.1            IProute 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 172.17.2.250

      Port 48 on Core switch connects to port2 on Dell server that has Virtual PFsense

      PFsense Virtual IP Lan    172.17.2.250

      I try dot1q trunk encapsulation on port 48 did not work
      I changed to access mode I was able to connect to the internet, but as mention before, only vlan 3

      I really would appropriate any help on this
