I manage 5 different schools. At one school we had similar problems with AFP disconnects
One of the problems we found was some of the switches and or routers had the spanning tree protocol enabled. According to Cisco’s website “Spanning-Tree Protocol is a link management protocol that provides path redundancy while preventing undesirable loops in the network. For an Ethernet network to function properly, only one active path can exist between two stations. ” As soon as we disabled this protocol almost all disconnects stopped. I hope this helps someone. I was pulling my hair out, checking server settings, and the whole time I had nothing to do with it.
