Switch is showing a macflap error
=================================

Symptom
-------

The switch you have installed a Genians Network Sensor to is reporting a mac
flap involving the port that the sensor is connected to.

Cause
-----

The Network Sensor sends a spoofed Virtual MAC as part of its internal AP
detection mechanism, which occasionally results in a mac flap.
