When I used to deal with Extreme, they always claimed these type of
messages were indicative of a hardware problem.

The best thing to do in my opinion would be to run extended diags a few
times, if they come back normal then consider the switch "OK" but do keep
an eye on it.

If this switch is critical and can't afford any downtime, then ignore the
above and consider it faulty :)
