I hope you did this in a lab or something similar. :-) The "desktop vlan" is not intended for routing, as in "show sdm prefer vlan | incl unicast IPv4" gives you a clear "0". The 3550 simply wouldn't allow any routing with that template. The 3560 appears to process switch instead then. But why change the SDM template away from the "desktop access" default setting in the first place?
