Hey Guys, A bit off topic here but I was wondering if anyone else out there has experienced the same thing as I have in regards to a layer3 gig switches from cisco. Ive enabled unicast filtering on all access ports to protect against any mass outbound floods that could possibly saturate the trunks or even worst take down the network. Breakdown of what happens: Without warning the port goes into blocking mode...no snmp traps are generated, executing a 'showstorm-control unicast' shows the port to be in blocking mode and moving 4.6G pps Here is what ive tried: 1) removing the adjacent device from the ge3 switch - the port goes out of blocking mode and enters 'disconnected' 2) plugging the rj45 cable back in - the port immediately enters blocking mode and shows 4.6G pps <-- at this point there is no actual traffic being generated from the adjacent device connected to the ge3 (0 pps/ 0 bps) 3) manually shutdown the affected switch port and re-enable it - same results as #2 I have had the same issue come up a few times on both 12.1 and 12.2 IOS. When the issue first came up in my testbed, I was only sending udp and tcp syn traffic... no malformed packets or anything along those lines. The only way I have been able to clear this error is by performing a hard reload on the switch. Here is the switch / ios info...
