Hi guys,

Need some advice.

I keep getting link flaps on my stack. Not sure where is the issue.

Powered down and checked all cables and connectivity but issue still there.

  Switch #    Port 1       Port 2

  --------    ------       ------

    1           Ok           Ok

    2          Down          Ok

    3           Ok          Down

    4           Ok           Ok

    5           Ok           Ok

Here is the stack-port summary captured within few minutes.

Can you post the output to the command "PID: WS-C3750"?

Command not accepted. You mean the sh inventory?

Hi,

You may have a bad stacking cable or a bad interface on one of the switches.

Have a look at this doc for troubleshooting tips:

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/switches/lan/catalyst3750/software/troubleshooting/switch_stacks.html#wp58952

Very nice. 

How the heck am I suppose to help you if you block out the serial number????    The information I seek, whether or not your switch is part of the Field Notice, can be found in the first seven characters.

If you want to block them out, block out the last four characters.

Thanks Inayath,
