networking - Does my switch update its router table automatically -


i have hp procurve switch, added 2 new machines network, had assign ip addresses manually. using these 2 machines can ping current machine , other machines on network, if try ping 2 machines current machine (or others on network) not go through. thoughts router table has not updated that's why can't ping them machines have been on router. (not sure, not enough knowledge yet)

at least think so. question router table update it's information automatically?

assuming hp procurve acting switch, routing table should not problem. switch not route ips, switch concerned routing packets via layer-2 addresses (mac addresses). switch determined physical port connected device mac address, , when gets packet addressed mac address, sends packet out port. mapping on port destination mac address stored in cam table inside switch. different routing table maps ip address ranges physical interfaces.

what happening arp not resolving. arp binds layer 3 ips layer 2 macs in local network. can cause few reasons. first thing if switch has vlans enabled. makes switch act multiple isolated switches. after may need @ computers arp tables make sure correct. arping command useful.
