Any changez has been made recently on the network(physically or made any changez in the config), because that might occur loop on the network.

Hello,

I Have also a BIG Problem with HP SFF PC's with Intel 82566 Gigabit Network Cards (OnBoard) with the same message.

My Problem is also a DISCONNECT (Layer1 LINK DOWN) and followed by a CONNECT (Link UP) after 1 Second.

My Switches are all 3500XL - With 3550 No Problem.

Configured PORTFAST and AUTO Negotiation

Fix Speed SET - No Change

PORTFAST DISABLE - No Change

Sometimes it helps when i change the Port or Patch to another Switch in the same Cabinet.

Please HELP - About 800 PC's (with about 20 with this Problem)

We're running into very simliar problems.

You have Portfast disabled on ports connecting to switches or routers right?

are there updated drivers for the nics?

I have portfast enabled.

But it doesn't make sense if i disable it.

NIC Driver Update to 9.8.20 (Latest) doesn't help...

Have you tried setting the ports to "access" or "host"? This will stop the port from trunking.

I use "switchport access vlan xxx"

I don't use TRUNKING at HOST ports.

I suspect that your Computer NIC supports trunking. I believe that the default trunk configuration on the 3550 switch is "dynamic desirable", therefore if the NIC tries to setup a trunk the switch will comply.

If you run the command "switchport mode access" on the swith interface, it will rule this out as a possibility.

You might also want to run "no switchport nonegotiate" to turn off Dynamic Trunking Protocol (DTP)
