Hi,

I'm having an issue with a Catalyst 3648 POE switch and a motorola wifi antenna. Essentially my logs get flooded with the errors below and eventually the switch shuts down the port because of flapping.

From what i can tell the device is not POE compliant and should not be requesting POE. I don't really understand enough about the POE standard to know how a request could be seen on the line (i.e. interference etc). Any ideas?

The lines have been verified with a Fluke meter, and yes doing a "power inline never" on the port fixes my issue, i'd just like it to work right :)
