The Cisco catalyst ws-c3750x-12s-s 3750 v2 series has stackable switches that are of the next generation and are energy-efficient at the layer 3 fast ethernet level. These brand-new switches are compatible with Cisco’s energywise technology, which enables you to better control the amount of power that your network consumes, therefore lowering your overall energy expenses and your carbon impact. Through the process of sniffing on a host interface that is linked to my 3750g, I am receiving a large number of unicast packets that are meant for other hosts and are not originating from the machine that I began the sniffing activity on. After doing some studies, I came to the conclusion that a number of mac addresses were being removed from the mac address database at an excessively rapid rate: mac address table location: 00:26:9e:3c:7e:6a c3750g-48t-st#show mac-address-table address —————————————————————- types of ports for vlan mac addresses The address is 1 0026.9e3c.7e6a. —————— ———— ——- Mac addresses that are dynamic and total for this requirement are as follows: 1 and after about ten to twenty seconds have passed: mac address table location: 00:26:9e:3c:7e:6a c3750g-48t-st#show mac-address-table address —————————————————————- types of ports for vlan mac addresses —————— ———— ———— In the past, The aging time is the one that is set by default for c3750g-48t-st#: c3750g-48t-st#show mac-address-table aging-time vlan to display data The global aging time is equal to 300 vlan aging time. I am ———————- 1 300 Considering that the topology does not change all that often, it does not seem to be an issue of spanning tree complexity: c3750g-48t-st#show spanning-tree vlan was specified. 1 particulars include the fact that the topological change flag was not set, the detected flag was not set, and the total number of topology changes was 313; the most recent change came from port-channel at 13:42:30. This is the first time: hold 1, topology change 35, notification 2 timers: hello 0, topology change 0, notification 0, aging 300 ws-c3750v2-48ps-s
