You need to engage your networking people.  Verify that your subnet mask 
is correct.  IF the subnet mask is correct AND IF the ports on the switch 
are configured to be in the same VLAN AND IF it is not a "private VLAN", 
THEN you should be able to ping your neighbor.

But it smells like a routing/switching problem (e.g. bad subnet mask) that 
your network techs are best qualified to diagnose.

Since you have a VLAN unaware VSWITCH, make sure that the port the VSWITCH 
is using is an ACCESS port, not a trunk.
