Recently we have install windows 2012 active direcoty on our network. The network consisted with cisco devices. Cisco 3750 act as the core stack in the network.  With the installtion of Active directory the 3750 stack shows high cpu utilization. it is about 85%.

Version as follows

Switch   Ports  Model              SW Version              SW Image

Hello Priyan,

I've seen this issue before, I would say you most likely are hitting CSCta80514, fortunately its a known bug that was fixed years ago.  Are the "bad hop counters" incrementing under "show ip traffic" ??
