Re: What qualifies as "excessive broadcasts" ?
I've tried firmware H.08.58 (not yet on web) which made no difference.
They basically tell you that it's a problem with either nic, patch cable or switch port. When you've checked those they'll offer to replace the switch, and if that doesn't help they're completely lost.
I'm very sure this is a firmware problem.
Regards,
Soren

Re: What qualifies as "excessive broadcasts" ?
While the following does not cause port toggles, I also like to turn off LACP on most switches and make sure that spanning tree is properly configured.

Anyway we'll hopefully be switching to 5308's soon, so this is reeeeeaaaaally good news.

Re: What qualifies as "excessive broadcasts" ?
I see many of these excessive messages when there is a mismatch between the duplex-settings on the NIC and the switchport. All of our switchports are set to 100FullDuplex, but sometimes the NIC's on the PC are set to hardware default, auto or 100HalfDuplex and then the log are filled up with excessive broadcast. it also happens when the mediaconverter is not correctly configured.
TIP: to filter out write "log exc".
When I visit the user to correct the NIC-settings, most of them havent noticed any slow performance. seems to me that this is only unnecessary noice in the log.

Re: What qualifies as "excessive broadcasts" ?
Excessive broadcast and multicast traffic can seriously degrade network performance. By following the configuration examples given here and disabling IP-directed broadcasts
on edge routers, it is possible to mitigate the effects of excessive broadcast and multicast traffic.

Re: What qualifies as "excessive broadcasts" ?
...except these "error" messages aren't caused by "excessive" broadcasts.
I may be wrong, but I assume they are caused by PC NIC traffic being dropped by the switchport while it is in "blocking" for a period as it becomes enabled. The PC is getting no reponse to its ARPs and keeps sending requests as all the active processes become aware the NIC is up and start sending traffic to it.
