I have set port channel in my switch Cisco 2960, and i receiving the following error since then,

 

Error: 40371: 5w2d: %SW_MATM-4-MACFLAP_NOTIF: Host e41f.13fc.7781 in vlan 1 is flapping between port Gi0/17 and port Gi0/15

Please guide me how to fix it, config of my switch is pasted below

IBM servers are connected to port gig 0/15 and gig 0/17.

 

Ok i will configure duplex on g 0/17 as well and update if problem still persists

port-channel load-balance src-dst-ip

what to me mention in src-dst-ip ?

please read the link in my previous post.

Did you ever resolve this flapping issue?  I have the same issue on a 2960 and wanted to see what IOS  you are using and what the fix was.  Can you pls elaborate on this?

 

Thanks,

Scott

Based on his replies, it was not an issue on the switch but on the server that is connected to it. Based on his replies, they did not configure NIC teaming on the server that's why flapping occured

Also, that is also most likely your issue, check the ports that flap on your side, verify the configuration on those ports and if those ports are in etherchannel, make sure the other end is configured for etherchannel as well

LJ, thanks for writing.  My system is not using Port-channel or Ether-channel config's.  It's a Netlab system powered by NDG for educational lab environments.

 

Thanks,

Scott

Check the ports that are flapping then, verify their configuration
Better yet why not create another post for this so we can better assist you xD

Nopes, issue didnt resolve yet
