Jose, Here's a snip that talks about your message...
http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/473/62.shtml#casestudy5: Unfortunately, given their explanation, it doesn't really explain what "port 51" is now does it... I know this is a cop out, but if you can you might want to look into upgrading code on the cat3500 because later versions produce better debug output. Here's a sample that I took from one of my 3548's: May 15 17:06:53: 0000.0c07.ac01 has moved from port Gi0/2 to port Fa0/12 in vlan 115 May 15 17:06:56: Add address 0000.0c07.ac01, on port Gi0/1 vlan 115 May 15 17:06:56: 0000.0c07.ac01 has moved from port Fa0/12 to port Gi0/1 in vlan 115 The above is from a switch that I've been running 12.0(5)WC3b on for the last three months.

For instance: May 23 12:00:00 aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd 622964: 1y9w: 0050.8bd3.f768 has moved from port 10 to port 51 in vlan 1 May 23 12:00:00 aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd 622966: 1y9w: 0050.8bd3.f768 has moved from port 51 to port 10 in vlan 1 May 23 12:00:00 aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd 622968: 1y9w: 0002.a5e8.d9a1 has moved from port 39 to port 51 in vlan 1 May 23 12:00:00 aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd 622970: 1y9w: 0002.a5e8.d9a1 has moved from port 51 to port 39 in vlan 1 How can I locate "port 39" and "port 51" physically on the switch? Is this int fa0/39 and gi 0/2 ? -- Jose Celestino SAPO.pt::Systems http://www.sapo.pt --------------------------------------------------------------------- Quod licet Iovi non licet bovi.
