Hi people,

I was getting errors on one of the switch port Gi3/8

And I verified the logs found it's relates mac-address mismatch.

Its exactly what it says the port is flapping . check for bad patches , house cable and speed/duplex mismatches, faulty nic card. The switch is temporarliy err-disabling port due to this condition.

Hi glen,

Thanks for the early reply.

Yes the port is flapping agreed is it cause by bad patches or duplex/speed mismatch or faulty nic?

jus small doubts here.

bad patches means patch cards am i right?

house cable means what?

faulty nic card in host or?

Thanks in advance.
