Troubleshooting a Source Learning Problem
In order to troubleshoot a source learning problem the first step is to verify that the physical link is up and
the port has correctly auto-negotiated with the end-station.
The next thing is to verify that the port is a member of the right VLAN, if a port is statically configured
for a VLAN, or the Group Mobility policies are correctly defined. The workstation configuration should
also be verified.
The first thing to look for is the MAC address table to verify that the MAC address is being learned:
