Switch interface bouncing

Hello,

 

One of the interfaces of a 3650 switch is going in an up/down state. It happens about 7-8 times a day.

This interface is  fastethernet ,the other end of this interface has a device connected which seems to have 1G capability(to what we know). Below are the error & other outputs for this switch/port.

 

%LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN: Line protocol on Interface FastEthernet0/12, changed state to up
%LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN: Line protocol on Interface FastEthernet0/12, changed state to down
%LINK-3-UPDOWN: Interface FastEthernet0/12, changed state to down
%LINK-3-UPDOWN: Interface FastEthernet0/12, changed state to up
%LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN: Line protocol on Interface FastEthernet0/12, changed state to up

Also, following is seen when interface error counters are checked.

Will setting this fa0/12 to 100/full help here? What is the possible reason for flaps & err/runt on interface.

Appreciate all help please. Thank you.

            - A faulty device connected to this port (e.g.)

Hi

What is connected to that port?

it seems to be a non-cisco access point.

- Try another port on the switch , for this  device; if the problem then persists it becomes even more likely that the end-device is faulty.

Hi, 

is it PoE, is the same behavior on other port?

Yes it is POE. I am moving to another port on my switch and will check
Thank you James Wilburn US EPA Wilburn.james@epa.gov
Thanks again.

Post the complete output to the command "sh interface <PORT> controll".

My switch interface continues to bounce. connected is a WEBCADLX snmp NIC card. New used for management and snmp web card monitoring. I have changed the speed to speed 100/duplex full/ switchport mode access /spanning-tree port fast edge/ spanning-tree bpduguard enable. Webcardlx has been reset. It continues to bounce. and suggestions. Thank you for any comment.

When you conect non cisco devices its a good practice to force both interfaces to 100 Mbps full Duplex

 

Interface fa X/X

speed 100

Duplex Full

Every time a user logs in/out the interface flaps twice. 

I see this all the time.
