Could you send a config for both switches? How about a
fuller show spantree? A show port on the two ports?
Maybe this is caused by some half-duplex, full-duplex
issue... though I can't rationalize that explanation.
The fact that one port shows the switch as being the
root bridge and the other port pointing outwards is
getting me.
Also, who is MAC 0050.50E2.42C0?
