4. Ping from host 3 to a tagged interface on host 1 of the core switch.

   The pings should go through.

       [Host-3 ~]# ping 192.168.30.10
       [Host-3 ~]# ping 192.168.32.10

5. Ping from host 3 to an untagged interface on host 1 of the core switch.

       [Host-3 ~]# ping 192.168.99.10

6. Ping from host 3 to a tagged interface on host 2 of the `ToR72p-1` switch.

   The pings should go through.

       [Host-3 ~]# ping 192.168.20.10
       [Host-3 ~]# ping 192.168.23.10

7. Ping from host 1 to a tagged interface on host 2 of `ToR72p-1` switch. The ping should go through.

       [Host-1 ~]# ping 192.168.33.20
