Hi,
It started working after I ran
spanning-tree port# bpdu-filter
on the core switch port connected to the ProCurve Switch. I kept the access port as untagged but the uplink port as tagged. Don't know if it is correct or not but it is not going down now.
When i am running show spanning-tree bpdu-protection now, I am getting the below results for the changed port
100/1000T No Forwarding 10152
The number 10152 is shown under Errant.
Thanks.
