What is flapping between port on Cisco?
A MAC Flap is caused when a switch receives packets from two different interfaces with the same source MAC address. If you are getting the behaviour for a lot of other MACs, that most likely is a layer 2 loop. Check the network switches for misconfigurations that might cause a data-forwarding loop.
How do you set a MAC address on a Cisco switch port?
You can configure static MAC addresses for the switch. These addresses can be configured in interface configuration mode or in VLAN configuration mode. Use the mac address-table static command to assign a static MAC address to a virtual interface.
How do I configure MAC address?
Go to Wireless->Wireless MAC Filtering page, click the Add New button. Type in the MAC address you want to allow or deny to access the router, and give a description for this item. The status should be Enabled and at last, click the Save button.
Why is my Cisco Mac flapping between ports?
The offending MAC address seems to be a Cisco MAC (Possible one assigned to a port group?) however I am unable to physically locate the switch to which it belongs. When I remove the loop, The Core says the MAC is available through Po2 (The link to SW2), however SW2 says the MAC is available through Po1 (The uplink to the Core).
What should the main causes of VLAN flapping between ports?

How is MAC address learned on Port Channel?
1. When you configure switchports (physical interfaces) to belong in a bundle etherchannel, the switch will register the mac addresses learned by the interface port-channel on the mac-address table, not the physical interfaces. Example: Switch Catalyst 6500 SW#sh etherc summary
