Hi,

I would like to ask how to fix CRC errors on GigabitEthernet interface.
I have problem beetween Cisco C3750 and C2950. Th errors are only on interface on C3750. According to my knowledge CRC errors are related to Layer 1. I have changed twice fiber and gbic on both ends. I have changed port on C3750 and CRC errors are still there.

The errors disappeared when i turned on an option : speed nonegotiate on GigabitEthernet on C3750. But then i lost connection to neighbour. Please have a look at below interefaces outputs:

C3750:

and C2950 :

Could you please help ?
Thank you in advance
 
I'd say either a physical problem (faulty GBIC or GBIC not inserted fully or fibre cabling) or IOS bug on the 3750. I'd reinsert the GBIC's and clear the counters and see if it solves the issue. If not replace the patch cables and if its still not fixed update the IOS on the 3750.
To be honest I'd update the IOS as a matter of course anyway.
