Switch ports does not show mac address

HI. Please help me. There was a problem with WS-C4510R-E. After updating to firmware cat4500e-entservicesk9-mz.152-2.E2.bin does not study the client MAC address (connected directly to the port), the port rises normally full in 1000, there are no errors, the MAC table is full. 

When you type the command:

sh mac address-table int gi
Multicast Entries
vlan mac address type ports

MAC does not see

When configuring port security MAC remembers

sh mac address-table int gi8/7
Unicast Entries
vlan mac address type protocols port
---------+---------------+--------+---------------------+-------------------------
9 xxxxxxxxxxxx static ip,ipx,assigned,other GigabitEthernet

Why is this happening? Port access

Hi,

Is this switch in production ?

Did you try clearing the mac add table ?

Regards,

Harsha

Yes this a switch in production  and I cleared the table MAC

Post the complete output to the command "sh interface Gi 8/7".

At the moment down

GigabitEthernet8/7 is down, line protocol is down (notconnect)

Makes sense.  Layer 1 is down, so MAC address is not kept.

He excluded port-sec, dropping port settings to default and then setting it:

interface GigabitEthernet8/7
switchport access vlan *
switchport mode access
switchport voice vlan *
load-interval 30
spanning-tree portfast
spanning-tree bpduguard enable
end

it worked - the MAC address for the port being studied.
