CISCO SWITCHES FOR SMALL and MEDIUM BUSINESS
Introducing the next generation of Cisco Small and Medium Business Switches. Cisco is refreshing its SMB Switch portfolio. Click here to learn more.
It looks like it started last Friday, and I haven't made any changes to the switch. All ports appear to be mirroring or forwarding packets.
Any ideas?

Hi Sean
too many questions unanswered in your problem description..Your question is almost like me asking, why did my vehicle, a 1996 toyota corolla start running slow on friday..
A technician might need to need to know;
Is the observed traffic an infusion of multicast or broadcast packets from a bad NIC card, dunno
Why not open a case with the good folk at Small Business Support Center (SBSC) and seek their advice or a solution to the issues. Normally they look at break/fix issue not network performance, but those tremendous folks try their best to help my customers. So give them a go.

Hi Sean,
Did you manage to figure this out? I experience the same thing.

Hi Elvind, judging on the date of this topic, I would venture to say he is running older firmware which had a bug every 50 days it would 'broadcast' all traffic on all ports due to the cam table dropping. This bug was fixed on 1.1.2.0 release.
