Port RSTP role Change and slow transfer speeds

[HopeMartin]

Getting event type: Port RSTP role change and having very slow transfer speeds. Anyone knows what would cause the Port RSTP role change to happen multiple times a day? And a solution?

Hi ,

What is connected to these ports ? End users ?

Usually that type of event is related to a physical disconnection / insertion of a cable ( Port status change is the actual event name  )

[HopeMartin]

QNAP (NAS) , no end users

[RaphaelL]

So you have multiple QNAP ? Port 33 , 40 and all the other ports from your screenshot. 

Do you have logs on your QNAP ? Looks like the port might be flapping.

[HopeMartin]

Port 33 is to the QNAP. Others is to other network equipment. no end user equipment.

The role normally changes if the port goes up and down.  This is a very normal message for users connecting, but not for the QNAP which should be running 24x7.

Try running a cable test on your MS.

Ran cables test and all cables test passed successfully.
