Hi Jhonn,

As the switch is just near the max temp and the link flapping starts over an hour after it has recovered back to normal I would not say that these two effects are related. I once had a switch way below min temp and it worked just fine.

10Mbps Full Duplex is definitely uncommon.

Seeing the reported speeds, especially 10 Mbps, I'd say bad cabling. Or do you actually have devices that are only able to do 10 Mbps?

You could try doing a "configure ports auto on speed 10 duplex half" and see if this reduces link flapping, especially for the ports that connect using 1 Gbps right now. If it helps, cabling is very likely to be the cause. But attention: 10 Mbps half-duplex won't make your users happy, as this is veeery slow. And you actually need to dis- and re-enable the ports to force the new setting.

For temp issues, I would say physically touch the switch and see if switch actually got high temp. If not then there could be chances that s/w has some bugs.
