False carrier errors, line protocol bouncing

rajibchicago

Level 1

I am seeing one of the swtich port on a ws-c2950T-24 switch port line protocol is bouncing and and show controllers ethernet-controller command shows 53 Symbol error frames, 1322 False carrier errors. also show interface command shows 53 input, 51 crc errors, 2 frame, 2 interface resets. Is the switch port going bad?
