PO5 goes to our primary wireless controller. Gi2/9 goes to a Cisco 4500 switch that also has a PO5 on it for a failover lan controller and TE7/2 is another core switch.
These mac-address all seem to point to PO 5 which is the port channel assigned to Wireless Controller interfaces.
How do I determine if this is a spanning-tree loop? No ports are err-disabled.
I have a 2960 switch and every then and now the ports are flapping, while i was on console i saw ports going down and coming up...when the ping to machine ip addresses timed out the port status on switch was still up...no errors collisions seen on sw port. Below is sh int when the port was flapping

I am receiving the following error message on a Cisco 3750 switch stack. Need troubleshooting this error message.
00:03:13: %SW_MATM-4-MACFLAP_NOTIF: Host 00d0.7400.2730 in vlan 600 is flapping between port Gi2/0/3 and port Gi2/0/2
I have setup LAG for one of our 5508 controllers and have connected 4 of the 8 ethernet ports to a 4507 switch. After configuring 2 port channels on the switch we are receiving a host flapping error between the port channels and it seems to be causing a serious slowdown on the switch. When I shutdown one of the port channels the error goes away and traffic returns to normal. I have the same configuration at other locations with the only difference being the switches used are 3750G-12S and I do not see the host flapping error. It appears to only be a problem with modular switches.
One other thing of note: I read a Cisco white paper on LAG and it suggested creating the port channels over 2 different modules. For example, put ports G4/24 and G5/24 in port channel 1 and G4/25 and G5/25 in port channel 2. I tried this but I still got the host flapping error.

I have 4506e core switch to which 10 other 2960 switches are connected.I want to upgrade thier IOS. how can upgrade it, can I upgrade it one by one or all at a time?
Is there any tool to perform this task?
I started having connectivity issues between my core 4506E (Sup7E) and Cisco 2960S. There were input and CRC errors on Te int (SFP 10Gb - LRM) on 2960S, which cause the interface to reset and drop connections. While troubleshooting this issue, I have replaced patch cords and also had the tech checking the fiber. He said that there was some residue on one of the connectors, so the light levels fluctuated in 1300nm, but worked fine in 850. Well LRMs are using 1300, so he re-polished the tips, which worked to stabilize the light levels. After all that, I was still receiving the input/CRC errors, but the connection was NOT dropping. As my last resort I swapped the SFPs between the core and 2960, thinking I should start having issues on the core end. Well, here's what happened: I stopped receiving input/CRC errors on 2960 (also no errors on the core), but 2960s started generating Rx power high alarms: [code]
View 1 Replies View RelatedI would like to check if it may be possible to hot-upgrade/swap the 4506E power supplies? Based on the configuration guide; I have summarized the steps as follows:
1. Switch has 2 existing power supplies to be upgraded
2. Remove right side/bay 2 power supply and install new power supply
3. At this point; the new power supply will be in err-disabled due to different power supplies on the switch
4. Remove the left side power supply and install new power supply
For item 4; during the removal of the old power supply in bay 1/left side and installation of the new power supply; I am wondering if the switch would lose power even though the new power supply is installed in bay 2?
I have two cisco 4506-E series switches ..
We are planning to go for HSRP redundancy for 32 VLANs. Means In a Cisco 4506-E switch , we will configure 32 vlans and among them 16 vlans will be primary and 16VLANs will be standby ans it is viceversa in another core-switch
My querie is How many standby groups can we create in Cisco 4506-E switch,
Is there any limitation..
If there is any limitation , can we go ahead with VRRP,GLBP? Are there any limitation in VRRP/GLBP? Is there any design related issue can we face if we use same group number to all VLANs?

i have a question, i have in the logging of my switches a mac falpping problem. i have a log notification : Apr 12 19:33:13: %SW_MATM-4-MACFLAP_NOTIF: Host xxxx.f065.520c in vlan 25 is flapping between port Gi0/1 and port Fa0/35. When i look up what is connected to interface FA0/35 it is a accespoint " AIR-AP1242G-A-K9" Cisco IOS Software, C1240 Software (C1240-K9W7-M), Version 12.4(21a)JA1, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc1)
How this is making the mac flapping ?
We have some legacy Cisco 6513 switches with the backbone (16-port GBIC blade) MTU set to 1500. It has a WS-X6148A-GE-TX blade as well, MTU set to 9K.
Now we have a customer sending MTU of 1546, their copper interface terminating on WS-6148A keeps flapping. Does the flapping have something to do with the backbone set to 1500? We cant set the backbone to 9K at this moment since it may be intrusive (reuire a reboot).
We have two switches WS-C2960S-24TS-L running in stack with running IOS c2960s-universalk9-mz.122-55.SE3.We have connected two checkpoint devices on Gi1/0/24 and Gi2/0/24 with a simple configuration:
interface range GigabitEthernet1/0/24, gi2/0/24
switchport access vlan x
switchport mode access
spanning-tree portfast
On the devices log we get the following message:
%SW_MATM-4-MACFLAP_NOTIF: Host 0000.0000.fe21 in vlan x is flapping between port Gi2/0/24 and port Gi1/0/24
The mac-address 0000.0000.fe21 is not found on any checkpoint interface. "Show mac-address int gi1/0/24 or gi2/0/24" does not show the correct mac-address of the checkpoint interface connected to the port, but instead shows 0000.0000.fe21.Is there a bug in the IOS, something wrong with the switch config or does it have something to do with the checkpoint config?
This is the message that I am getting from my 1941w router. I have a isakmp tunnel built with a GRE tunnel going through it.
View 15 Replies View RelatedLately I have been noticing mac flap messages on some of our access layer 3750G switches. Just a little background on how this is setup.
These 3750G switches are stacked and uplinked to a distribution layer 3750E stack (2 switches) via cross stacked etherchannel. (Usually 4 links) The access layer switches are stricly layer 2 where the distribution layer 3750E is routing the VLANs at the access layer to to the core 6500 switches.
I have just about ruled out physical loops on these stacks for the reason that the Macs are flapping. I am seeing this on two different stacks now each having 3 switches in the stack at the access layer. The cross stack etherchannel is spanned across the first two switches at the access layer and connected to both switches at the distribution layer. I have checked the etherchannel status and all ports appear to be part of the etherchannel and they appear fine.
The mac addressses that are flapping are just plain old desktop machines that plug directly into the access layer. I usually see this when the mac is learned on a port such as when a machine is plugged into the network or reboots.
Would like to ask whats the correct snmp config so that it will send to our snmp server when a mac flapping occurs on a cisco switch specifically 4507 switches.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI work for a Wireless ISP and the device impacted is the back haul radio into the site. I have swapped from a 2950T to a 3550. Replaced the radio, PoE, patch lead. We have re ran the cable up the tower using shielded outdoor cable with a drain wire which has been earthed to an earthing block in the cabinet. We have other devices on the tower not experiencing the issue. We suspect cable interference however am now at a loss to diagnose further.

We have a pair Cisco 6509 switch in which 2 * 48 Port 1G line cards and 1 * 16 Port 10G line Card, FWSM and Sup 720 are installed.We have Cisco UCS and HP Blade servers.Cisco UCS servers are connected to Cisco 6509 switch using Fabric Interconnect, and HP Servers are directly connected to core switches.Recently the team made many changes in the network. Upgraded the IOS in Cisco 6509 switch, Configured Port profiling , MAC Pinning , HBA Cards to UCS / Nexus 1000V Infrastructure. After this change they lost the connectivity to UCS and HP Serers. Every tower is checking at their end.
The Network Team has reverted back the core switch with old IOS , but still the problem persisit.I could only see the following error log in the core switch. There are two port-channels one between core 1 and core 2. The other is between core switch and FWSM module. [code]
we have cisco 2960 switch which is connected to a cisco 2811 router. flapping issue between these two devices??
The following actions i have taken, but no result.. I have changed cables. have set speed to 100 and duplex full on both the interfaces but the interfaces are showing up up still not getting connectivity. same i have to auto on both sides still no result what configurations should i set to resolve this issue...?

After my research i think this is a looping issue but I'm unsure how to address it.
i just configured a C6K VSS with Sup2T, 15.1SY IOS software and a WS6724-SFP module with the follwing cos config:
auto qos default
table-map cos-discard-class-map
map from 0 to 0
map from 1 to 8
map from 2 to 16
[code]....
After applying the service policy to one interfac of the WS6724-SFP module the policy is deployed to all interfaces of the module. So far it should be ok but after a short time all interface of the module begin to go down an up and down and up ... flapping.
Stange problem which I encountered today, I have a Cisco 2960 which is connected to a netgear. The switch started showing itself in CDP and was running STP. I checked the cables physically today and noted 3 uplinks to the netgear, all port on the Cisco active and forwarding and green lights.
The Cisco was running STP, I changed it to R-PVST and the lights on the Cisco went crazy and I got the message port flapping on the switch but the switch did not block any ports (all ports on same vlan).
There after I changed it back to stp and the switch blocked the other up links apart from one.
Sure R-PVST is far superior than STP?
I have two core switches - 4506E, and i noticed there are frequent cpu spikes on both of the cores switches. As its spikes intermitendly i couldnt able to anlyze the issue. I need inputs on the following,
1) Is there any Free CPU process monitoring tools to identify which process is spiking ?
2) Troubleshooting techniques to identify the issue.
I have two Core 6509E SUP2T configued as VSS and has two 48 ports fiber blades. I have two 3750s, I have two gig on each 3750 port-channle to po1 and connected to both the core, one link to each core.Now, I was asked ot add two more links on each 3750 switch to make it a total of 4 gigs on each 3750s (all 4 gig ports/uplinks will be in used an dtwo links to core one an dtwo links to core 2).when i added two additional links on 3750s and bundled them to po1, I created another port channel on core and bundeled the additional two gigs on each core to accomodate for the two additional links (ports on core switches are not consequtives).
adding these two additional ports makes the 3750 switches flap between managemnet vlan and po1.now, i am not sure if I must have added the two additional links on the core to teh current port-channel or core!? I have created another port-channel on core to accomodate for this currently!?
I have an issue with a Cisco 3750 switch stack which is connected to two seperate upstream Cisco 3750's which are administered by an ISP. The ISP is experiencing MAC address flapping from one of my VLAN SVI's i am using to route traffic upstream
[code]...
As you can see I utilise a VLAN SVI to route traffic to the upstream 1.1.1.2 (illustration only) IP. As per the diagram of the topology attached, the ISP is receiving a MAC address flapping error confirming the SVI MAC address from my switch stack is being learnt on the trunk port connecting switch 1 and switch 2, and also the port (Gi1/0/48) directly connected to my switch stack. As these are all Layer 2 links essentially being passed upstream and then connected between the two ISP switches, we have a 3 way triangular loop formed.
If I was to remove the port channel configuration from the two ports associated with the VLAN SVI, am i right in suggesting this would still form a layer 2 loop? The two ports would still be a member of the SVI VLAN, and it is the VLAN MAC address which is being learnt by the two ISP switches on different interfaces.
