Lee, we had this on a few batches of the 3702's as well. Turned off
spanning tree until they update their image and then turned spanning
tree back on.

Spanning-Tree Portfast Out-of-Box
I’ve seen 2702’s doing this as well. Was amazed when I looked in the
log of my switch when I couldn’t figure out why the ports got
disabled. Wrong MAC address is also one of the problems we’re having
with the 2702’s. Don’t know what they have been doing with these
pre-loaded images on them. These images should have been tested better
at Cisco…

Thanks, Oliver- so this is known… good to know. So far I’m not finding
a specific bug ID doing searches. Would you have any link, by chance?

We had this behaviour on a batch of 2702s, the firmware that was
preloaded had this bug that went away once the associated and
upgraded. It's a right pita changing the port config to get them to
connect, then reverting it later, but not as bad as the other firmware
bug causing APs to use the wrong MAC address until they upgraded.

Wondering if anyone has seen similar with Cisco APs: On
switchports that have been fine for other Cisco APs, a run of new
3702s are going into error disable. If you turn on the ability to
see why in the switch, the APs – only when new out of box—are
sending BPDUs to ports that have Spanning-Tree Portfast on as a rule.
If you remove portfast, the new 3702s go off to the WLC just fine,
get updated for code, and then work as expected. You can restore
spanning-tree portfast, reboot the APs (that are no longer “out of
box”) and they behave fine on the portfast-enabled ports.
I’ve not seen this behavior with any other Cisco AP, and I don’t
think it happened with our earliest 3700s, either.
Does this oddity ring familiar with anyone?
Thanks-
Lee
