Need help solving this routing issue (labbing for ccent)

Hey Guys, Decided to study for the ccent by creating my own network. Unfortunately I got stuck with pinging a different subnet with a switch.

Basically my HS-SW can ping 10.121.128.1 but can't ping the 10.0.20.0 network side
Here are my running config for all my devices
hostname HS-SW!

    Since HS-SW is not running ospf, it doesn't have a route to 10.0.20.0, it can ping 10.121.128.1 because it knows that network 10.121.128.0/24 is connected to the local interface vlan 128. If you do "show ip route" will will see there is no route to 10.0.20.0 so how is the switch supposed to know where to send the ping?
    Networking, sometimes i love it, mostly i hate it.Its all about the $$$$

    sorry been trying to upload the diagram. HS-SW is a switch. Layer 2 Switch. (Future router on a stick Lab)

    Ask yourself what is the difference between a router and a switch. What can a router do that a switch cant do?

    yeah I understand what you mean. I was actually able to connect a host and ping all the way through.

    Hi, correct me if im wrong, your switch can only ping 10.121.128.1 because of interface Vlan128 which is 10.121.128.2, your switch doesnt know where to send packets with other network address, because there are no route's in the switch, i would config a default gateway on the switch:

    Switch(config)#ip default-gateway 10.121.128.1

    I think after you do this, you should be able to ping other address's from the switch, as this address is part of the ospf proccess on the router

    Thank you. Finally was able to ping using the switch. Never understood why till you told me. Thank you

    I thought you needed a Layer 3 switch for ros?

    I might be wrong but router on a stick is used to allow multiple vlans on a sing interface because it doesn't know how to handle them. With layer 3 switching it can handle routes and able to forward the vlans properly

    you can use a router with subinterfaces if there's no layer 3 switch.

    jahaziel tell me why then, what is the default-gateway doing???

    Gives it the default route to send its packets.
