Multicast Data Drop on 3750X

James_S33
Level 1
Level 1


We are currently experiencing random multicast data dropouts on ports that are connected to a 3750X in VLAN ports.


A test PC was connected to a routed port and we do not have any dropouts of the multicast data.
We also took a 2960G and plugged it into VLAN ports on the 3750X.  Any test PC that is on the 2960G does not lose traffic.

The traffic only drops on PCs that are connected to a port on the 3750X that is in a VLAN.  The data drops are random and last approximatly 55-59 seconds
before we start receiving multicast traffic again.

I do not see any input/output errors on the interfaces
sh platform port-asic stat drop also show no drops

CPU runs at about 50% on the 3750X

Below is the configuration of the 3750X

Do you have the same issue if you are using different ports on the same 3750 or is it just one port that is causing problems?

We have tried multiple ports and still have the same problem.

Did you solve the problem?

We are currently experiencing multicast dropouts on 3750X in stack with 3750G (with multicast source). No dropouts between two 3750Gs in stack though. Mirroring a 3750G port with multicast trraffic to 3750X once again gives us no dropouts.
