Interface flaps cease and link negotiation reports the supported common speed. Such an observation would verify a separate issue: A copper uplink flaps because a port is hard-set to an incompatible speed while its neighbor autonegotiates. It would follow the distinct action: Align supported speed and autonegotiation settings and check copper media.
