IIRC, watchdog proccess exist in IOS to compensate for its non-preemptively
multitasking architecture, being invoked when a given process hogs resources
for some arbitrarily-arrived-at interval deemed excessive. If the timer
expires and the OS cannot switch control of the usual suspects to another
process, cisco documentation hints that an involuntary (from the viewpoint
of the LAN administrator, at least) reset might be imminent.
In your case, I'm assuming that the excessive amounts of writes to the
structures reserved for mapping MAC addresses are getting in the way of
other functions.

Hey all im trying to troubleshoot some issues with 2 of our switches. Most
of the error codes I can find, but the watchdog one's I can't find a lot
of
info on this particular issue. Any help would be appreciated. Events are
