Hi2All

there is no output on Show log

best wishes

Try the commands "show interfaces status err-disable" and " show errdisable detect" to shows which local ports are involved in the errdisabled state. port the output.

also post show log - to see what logging is setup

which port the AP is connected to ?

According to your output, port Fa0/38 err-disabled due to link flap (interface state up/down). I believe the default on the switch is if an interface flaps more than 10 times in 5 seconds or the other way around, the port is err-disable. you need to investigate why the flap happened!! it could be a faulty cable or interface!!

Regarding port Fa0/44, can you post the config?

Francisco

Hi2All,

AP is connected to Fa 0/44

int fa 0/44

switchport mode access

switchport access vlan 4

Thanks for the info.

Looks like the loopback error is a bug CSCea46385 due to a old version os IOS on your switch. By upgrading to new code should disable sending and receiving of keepalive on the AP interface. see below.

Keepalives are sent on all interfaces by default in Cisco IOS Software Release 12.1EA−based

software. In Cisco IOS Software Release 12.2SE−based software and later, keepalives are not sent by

default on fiber and uplink interfaces. For more information, refer to Cisco bug ID CSCea46385

The suggested workaround is to disable keepalives and upgrade to Cisco IOS Software Release

12.2SE or later.

bug info

ETHCNTR-3-LOOP_BACK_DETECTED: Loop-back detected on gig0/2

Symptom:

An interface on a Catalyst switch is errordisabled after detecting a loopback.

Mar 7 03:20:40: %ETHCNTR-3-LOOP_BACK_DETECTED: Loop-back detected on

GigabitEthernet0/2. The port is forced to linkdown.

Mar 7 03:20:42: %LINK-5-CHANGED: Interface GigabitEthernet0/2, changed state

to administratively down

Mar 7 03:20:43: %LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN: Line protocol on Interface

GigabitEthernet0/2, changed state to down

Conditions:

This might be seen on a Catalyst 2940, 2950, 2950-LRE, 2955, 2970, 3550, 3560 or

3750 switch running 12.1EA or 12.2SE based code.

Workaround:

Disable keepalives by using the no keepalive interface

command. This will

prevent the port from being errdisabled, but it does not resolve the root cause of

the problem. Please see section below for more information.

Additional Information:

The problem occurs because the keepalive packet is looped back to the port that

sent

the keepalive. There is a loop in the network. Although disabling the keepalive

will prevent the interface from being errdisabled, it will not remove the loop.

The problem is aggravated if there are a large number of Topology Change

Notifications

on the network. When a switch receives a BPDU with the Topology Change bit set,

the switch will fast age the MAC Address table. When this happens, the number of

flooded packets increases because the MAC Address table is empty.

Keepalives are sent on the Catalyst 2940, 2950, 2950-LRE, 2955, 2970, 3550, 3560

or 3750 switch to prevent loops in the network. The primary reason for the

keepalives

is to prevent loops as a result of Type 2 cabling. For more information, see:

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/netsol/ns340/ns394/ns74/ns149/networking_solutions_white_paper09186a00800a3e16.shtml

Keepalives are sent on ALL interfaces by default in 12.1EA based software.

Starting in 12.2SE based releases, keepalives are NO longer sent by default on fiber and

uplink interfaces.
