Hello Guys
We Are facing an issue with Duplex Match. error in nexus 5k
Our Nexus 5k Switch continously throwing Duplex mismtach error on Logs.

The interface is connected to Cisco Wireless lan controller(5508) using port-channel. Other interface in Port channel is not facing an Issue.
This interface is hardcoded with Speed 1000. Same config on WLC also Speed 1000. No ipunt errors observed in the interfaces
But in Switch cdp this interface is showing as Half duplex and flooding the 5k with logs
Please find the Interface configs & CDP outputs,

The lan controller shows this , which shows "auto" for mode. Change the switch end to auto instead of a hardcoded speed of 1000 this could be causing your mismatch . Switch end does not need ot be hardcoded.

Hi Grant,
Thanks for your sugggestions.But however we Have 6 Controllers, all are having the same setup as this one.
Only difference i seen for this switch is for the th port 1/11 it is showling 2 CDP info, one for management interface of WLC and other for Logical interface of WLC, which seems not correct.
Ths CDP info connecting to Logical interface is showing half duplex and cdp info connecting to Physical interface of wlc is showing full duplex.

Guys,
Any inputs here????
05-08-2014 08:54 PM
I'm having the same issue here - same alert, same CDP info. did you ever get a resolution?
01-30-2015 04:09 AM
Hi
Yes. we managed to resolve it.
Disabling the CDP v2 advertisement in the interface. Stops the logs.

A duplex mismatch is a situation where the switch operates at full duplex and the connected device operates at half duplex or vice versa. The results of a duplex mismatch are extremely slow performance, intermittent connectivity, and loss of connection. Other possible causes of data link errors at full duplex are bad cables, faulty switch ports, or client software or hardware issues.
Resolution : Since for 5500s WLC , data rate is fixed 1k full duplex, please check the switch side data rate , make sure it is set to 1000 Mbps Full Duplex.
