I'm having an interesting problem at one of my sites. We'll call it site A.
At site A we have 3 4006 switches fully loaded or close to fully loaded each. They span 3 floors. One of the switches is the "core" switch if you will. The other two switches connect to it and it links back to my main facility over a gigaman circuit. Back at the main facility, the Gigaman circuit terminates on another 4006 switch that also terminates a lot of other similar but smaller sites like site A.
Here's the problem I'm having.
longer connect to the network. The fix is, to go out there and administratively set the MAC address to something else. Then it works for a day or 2 and breaks again. So, we change the MAC again. It's like the old MAC just stops working. Where do you start with something like that. It HAS to be a switching issue doesn't it?
Should I increase or decrease MAC aging? What do you guys think on that one?
