RSTP and message in log about loops

Mon Jan 10, 2022 8:57 pm

Hi!
When using RSTP on a bridge interface for redundancy, is it normal to see these loop messages in the log then when changeovers happen? "bridge port received packet with own address as source address (MAC) probably loop".

I thought RSTP should guard against any loops, even a very short one by not putting ports in forwarding state until RSTP determined it a non looping port? It does seem to work fine but those messages scares me a bit :( Maybe I configured RSTP wrong?
