Bug in Cisco 837?

kevintang
Level 1
Level 1

I had a cisco 837 with IOS 12.3(2)XC. The log always has the error message "Dec 9 14:58:45: %CDP-4-DUPLEX_MISMATCH: duplex mismatch discovered on Ethernet0

(not full duplex), with switch1 FastEthernet0/1 (full duplex)."

But there is no error message under my router e0 interface. I have to put "no cdp enable" in the E0 iterface to make this error message despair.

Do you think it is a bug?

What switch has been connected to this router. Is it a 3500 xl switch ? Is the switch inline power enabled ? What version of code do you run on that switch ?

Hello Kevin,

I guess you verified that whatever is connected to your Ethernet0 has matching duplex and speed settings.

There is a documented bug, here is what it says, not sure if that applies to you; I guess you verified that whatever is connected to your Ethernet0 has matching duplex and speed settings:

Catalyst WS-C3524-PWR-XL-EN running 12.0(5)WC3b with ISL trunk to another Catalyst or

Router on switch reboots may display

%CDP-4-DUPLEX_MISMATCH: duplex mismatch discovered on FastEthernet0/0.1 (not half duplex),

with Switch2 FastEthernet0/24 (half duplex).>

Typicaly seen when the devices are hardset to 100 MB / full duplex and are running CDP-v2

Workaround:

Configure the following command under the interface in question on the WS-C3524-PWR-XL

switch.

'no power inline never '

Regards,

GP

Hi, GP

I think you are talking about bug CSCdx85015 for cisco 3524XL switch. My neighbor switch is cisco 2950. Do you think this bug will still apply to cisco 2950?
