Packet drops and High CPU on Cisco 3845 Switch

Hello Experts,

We are facing a lot of packet drops in our LAN.

When we try to ping one of the access switches from the CE router, we get the follwoing output:

pdel1799#ping 10.132.136.17 so 10.132.164.1 si 100 re 500
Type escape  sequence to abort.
Sending 500, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 10.132.136.17, timeout  is 2 seconds:
Packet sent with a source address of  10.132.164.1

Some command outputs and show tech of all switches attached from the customer which I have attached.

I have also attached a diagram but the only router''s IP address is correct in the diagram while IP address of switches in the diagram are incorrect. Here are the correct IPs of the switches:

  

Core Switch : 10.132.139.2

Access Switches:

10.132.136.17

10.132.136.18

10.132.136.29

Apart from packet drops on VLAN 1 we are seeing  high CPU utilization on core switch

ingur-msl-coresw#sh processes cpu sorted | ex 0.0

Core 0: CPU utilization for five seconds: 61%; one minute: 45%;  five minutes: 47%

Core 1: CPU utilization for five seconds: 63%; one minute: 46%;  five minutes: 56%

Core 2: CPU utilization for five seconds: 36%; one minute: 74%;  five minutes: 69%

Hi,

I can see several Mac Flaps in the logs provided.... i.e. on int gi 1/1/3.  have you verified you don't have any bridging loop occurring on the network?

Regards,

Yaseen

How do I check that?
