I have redundant NOKIA Firewall connected to port 2 of two switch with port 12 as trunk. I receive this error:
RTD-1-ADDR_FLAP [chars] relearning [dec] addrs per min
Cisco explanation and solution http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/switches/ps628/products_configuration_guide_chapter09186a008007e927.html
When i do the recommendation "debug" the VRRP MAC Address of NOKIA is move from port 2 to 12 and vice versa. Both for two switch. I can't just remove the port like what the recommendation says. Is it saying to use another port as TRUNK or remove the connection between two switch?

According to error message, it is saying about SINGLE looped-back port not about ports. So, please identify the port with the command "debug ethernet-controller addr" and remove the port. Because anyway that port is looped-back which is useless, what it transmits received by itself only.

medan,
HSRP uses multicast address 224.0.0.2. Make sure your firewalls are not blocking this address. I have run into a similar problem before...

Nope, Nope, Nope. I post these poroblem also in WAN, Routing and Switching. Title "C3512XL ADDR_FLAP messages" see my findings there. BTW, I did everything including shutting down ports connected to firewalls, moving servers in other ports, moving firewalls in other ports. shutting down firewalls, rebooting switches, rebooting firewalls. When we deploy this 2 years ago and test all possible breakdown sccenario (sshutdown switch, fw, or server) theres no problem, therefore it is not a design problem.
I guess Cisco should include this as one of the solution. Replace the switch, because it's not a loop. The switch is faulty.
