Since we configured port security our printers are dropping out of the mac-address-table and getting lpr and snmp communications errors. A ping will bring it back online but only temporarily. Any ideas?
Trying to use wake on lan, doesn't work after arp table times out (weekends). Should we increase timeout by that much? Another suggestion was to allow directed broadcast of only the UDP port 4725 from only the vlan sending the wake on lan packet. ...
Disabling the aging time has resolved the problem in most places, trying to determine the difference in a site that still had problems with it disabled.
