Hey Dave, The loop argument was a little far fetched. Seems anytime anybody calls TAC these days for a switch problem, that is their first answer.
Think you probably hit the nail on the head. Thanks for your help.

[7:65765] I don't buy the layer 2 loop argument, it's more likely an ASIC problem, the banff is a chipset consisting of three ASICs. Do a "sh banff-reset" and if you have a large number of reset you probably need to replace hardware. I assume this is a Cat5000 series switch.
