X460 and X450 Flapping Ports

[Martin_Harrow]

I have installed 15 new X460 switch stacks, and upgraded the Firmware on some old X450s.
I notice that many of the Ethernet Ports are "Flapping". There is no stable connection, and devices constantly disconnect/reconnect at 10M/100M/1000M. I note that the problem is worse with some Canon Printers, but other devices have problems. I can make the ports more stable by forcing the speed to 10M.

Here are some typical syslogs:

How can I fix this? I have new(ish) f/w (X460 = v1541b3-patch1-1 and X450 = v1265b2-patch1-3)

Most of the cabling is brand new, could this be a problem?

Thanks,
Martin

should we applied debounce 150 to all data ports too? Extreme support advise that it should be applied to port that are flapping only. is that right?

[PARTHIBAN_CHINN]

It applies to data ports as well Please apply denounce timer settings Summit , bd8k and bdx8 10 g ports are impacted

Hi there,

after we upgraded the switch firmware and applied debounce time 150 to stack ports, the stack ports flapping issue was resolved. However, I did observed some flapping for data ports. No sure if anyone noticed this issue.

Hi Boon,
Are you seeing this problem in X460 XGM module 10g ports?

could you copy paste the link flap logs from x460 and its peer device?

hi martin, did you managed to resolve the issue? I having the same issue with x460 now
