Cat 5500 loses connectivity on a Gigabit port at exactly 10 min intervals

Hi,

Please help me with the following:

A Catalyst 5500 loses connectivity on a Gigabit port at exactly 10 min intervals. This Catalyst has been up and working with the same config for 2 years. The port disconnect would cause a spanning tree change which affected users. The only other problem I had with this Catalyst was hardware related.

Here are the log entries:

2003 Feb 20 07:39:24 PST -08:00 %PAGP-5-PORTFROMSTP:Port 3/2 left bridge port 3/2

2003 Feb 20 07:39:27 PST -08:00 %DTP-5-TRUNKPORTON:Port 3/2 has become isl trunk

Thanks,

Looks like trunking is set to auto for this port. It is toggling between trunking and non-trunking.

Switch it to fixed ON or OFF depending on what you need.
