Author Question about inter-VLAN routing

Hi, I have a question. Say I have a 6509 switch set up, with port 1 belonging to VLAN2. This port plugs into a 3750 switch, and off of this switch comes all users in a specific area. In this area, there is a network printer that must be accessed by users in VLAN2, as well as other VLAN's. This is due to pre-existing wiring conditions. I am wondering how one would go about setting up the 6950 switch (it has a Routing module installed).
Also, how would users in VLAN2 retrieve their DHCP information? THe DHCP server will not be located in a VLAN, it will be off of the Main 6509 switch. Any ideas? Thanks in advance for your input.

First you are going to have to configure the port that connects to the 3750 as a trunk port, since you are using multiple VLANs on the 3750. Hopefully you have all the VLANs set up on the 6509 so you can route between them. You will also have to configure the port on the 3750 as a trunk port. Configure them both using the same speed, duplex, and trunking protocol (802.1q, for example). If you are running in hybrid mode (CatOS on the supervisor and IOS on the MSFC) use this link to see how to configure VLANs and trunking.

This link shows how to do it using Native IOS (IOS on the supervisor and the MSFC).

By configuring the ip helper-address command on the 6509 in each VLAN.
ip helper-address 192.168.0.254
