Stacking problems with GSM7328Sv1
I have 6 x GSM7328S v1 switches stacked using the AX742 stacking kits. Everything appears to working correctly, however, when pinging the stack management interface it seems to be dropping ping packets and showing some sporadic high results. Nothing has changed on my network and until recently I always got a constant 1ms response from the stack.
Other than a few vlans with tagged and untagged ports the switch have default settings. I upgraded all the switches to firmware 8.0.3.34, which is the latest version for the v1 GSM73xx switches, however, this hasn't made any difference. Having looked through the management interface, under SYSTEM > STACKING > STACK PORT CONFIGURATION I can see all 12 stacking ports/interfaces are showing receive errors. Some of the stack ports have a low rx error count (10-50) while others are showing 200000+. Does this indicate a hardware fault or could there be a misconfiguration somewhere? Should we be seeing any TX/RX errors on the stacking interfaces?
I setup a syslog server last night and the stack appears to be reporting the same warning over and over only the port number changes:
2013-04-24 15:17:07 user.warning 10.0.0.220 APR 24 14:17:07 10.0.0.220-1 DOT1S[116082912]: dot1s_sm.c(6554) 5553151 %% port 182 is going to forwarding state.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

- As an idea, does 'show logging traplogs' give you some more informations?
(I thought that syslog doesn't show all the same things, but it also depends on how it is configured though) - hi thanks for the reply, no I do not see any additional info with the trap logs.
one thing I have noticed is there seems to be a lot of spanning tree topology changes, both sending and receiving.
