We have a Switch SG500-52P connected to a 2960x using a Single Mode fiber through the port g1/1/49, and also it is connected to two other SG500 switch through the ports G1/1/19 and G1/1/36 respectively. by copper links. There is no redundant links implemented into the switches mentioned. The Switches are also configured with RSTP.
Lately, every 10 or 15 minutes the network is being interrupted constantly. Into the SG500 appears logs that mention that the ports G1/1/19 and G1/1/36 are suddenly blocked and after few seconds are into forwarding state. At the same time, into the 2960X switch side there are logs indicating that the fiber link gets down and later gets up after few seconds.

I am not able to find flapping events or duplicated MAC Addresses. I am not able to find the cause of the interruptions or the blocked ports.

- Use a syslog-server for all involved cisco devices, you may (sometimes) have a loop indeed, usually when the logs are collected centrally you will get an overview of looping-syndromes (or other issues) , if any. The then displayed mac addresses may then point to the cause of the loop.
