System Error Messages

System Error Messages

Introduction

This publication lists and describes system error messages, as of Software Release 9.0, for the router, terminal server, and protocol translator prod-ucts. These are the error messages which the system software sends to the console (and, optionally, to a logging server on another system) during operation.

Not all of these messages indicate problems with your system. Some are purely informational, while others may help to diagnose problems with communications lines, internal hardware, or the system software.

How to Read the Error Messages

The messages begin with a percent sign, and are displayed in the following format:

%PPP-6-LOOPED: The line appears to be looped back

The messages are structured as follows:

%FACILITY-SEVERITY-MNEMONIC: Message-text

FACILITY is a code, consisting of two to five uppercase letters, indicating the facility to which the message refers. A facility may be a hardware device, a protocol, or a module of the system software. Table 1, "Facility Codes," lists the codes for all of the system facilities.

SEVERITY is a single-digit code from 0 to 7 which reflects the severity of the condition. The lower the number, the more serious the situation. Table 2, "Error Message Logging Priorities," lists the severity levels.

MNEMONIC is a code, consisting of uppercase letters, that uniquely identifies the message.

Message-text is a text string describing the condition. This portion of the message sometimes contains detailed information about the event being reported, including terminal port numbers, network addresses, or addres-ses that correspond to locations in the system's memory address space. Because the information in these variable fields changes from message to message, it is represented here by short strings enclosed in square brackets ([ ]). A decimal number, for example, is represented as [dec]. A complete list of the types of variable fields, and the information contained in them, appears in Table 3, "Representation of Variable Fields in Error Messages ."

If one or more error messages recur after you take the recommended action, contact Cisco or contact your local field service organization.


Note Note: Each section of this publication describes the error messages produced by a different system facility. Messages are listed alphabetically by mnemonic. If several error messages share the same explanation and recommended action, the messages are presented as a group followed by the common explanation and recommended action. A quick index is also provided at the end of this publication to help you find the messages quickly.

Use the following tables to interpret the facility codes that begin each message, the severity level numbers associated with each message, and the variable fields contained in some of the messages.

Error Message Logging Priorities
Level Description
0 - emergencies System unusable
1 - alerts Immediate action needed
2 - critical Critical conditions
3 - errors Error conditions
4 - warnings Warning conditions
5 - notification Normal but significant condition
6 - informational Informational messages only
7 - debugging Appears during debugging only.

The levels correspond to the keywords assigned by the logging global configuration commands, to define where and at what level these mes-sages will appear. The default is to log messages to the console at the warnings level (4). See the system configuration chapter and descriptions

of the logging command in the publication for your networking product for more information.

AppleTalk Error Messages

Error Message:

%AT-6-ACQUIREMODE: [chars]: AppleTalk port initializing; acquiring [chars]

Explanation:

The port is determining the correct configuration. The message is generated when discovery mode is enabled and no other router has been detected.

Recommended Action:

Advisory message only. No action required.

Error Message:

%AT-5-ADDRINUSE: [chars]: AppleTalk node warning; address [atalk_address] already in use

Explanation:

The initial hint address was in use. A search will be made for a valid address.

Recommended Action:

Advisory message only. No action required.

Error Message:

%AT-5-ADDRINVALID: [chars]: AppleTalk node warning; address [atalk_address] is invalid

Explanation:

The hint address specified for the port was not valid for its current configuration.

Recommended Action:

None; the hint is ignored and a random valid hint has automatically computed.

Error Message:

%AT-6-ADDRUSED: [chars]: AppleTalk node up; using address [atalk_address]

Explanation:

No hint address or a bad hint address was specified. This message indicates the AppleTalk address that will be used.

Recommended Action:

Advisory message only. No action required.

Error Message:

%AT-2-ASSERTFAILED: AppleTalk assertion failed: [chars]

Explanation:

An inconsistency was detected by the software. Although considered a serious error, the router attempts to continue but AppleTalk processing may be impaired

Recommended Action:

Record the entire message and note any AppleTalk problems that you are experiencing. This information should be provided in a problem report to Cisco Systems.

Error Message:

%AT-5-BADNEIGHBOR: [chars]:AppleTalk neighbor ignored; [node] is misconfigured

Explanation:

A neighboring router's AppleTalk configuration does not agree with this router's AppleTalk configuration. This can be due to the neighbor's net-work range not matching this router's network range.

Recommended Action:

Modify this router or the neighboring router's configuration so that the network ranges agree.

Error Message:

%AT-6-BADROUTE: AppleTalk network down; no valid path to [atalk_net]

Explanation:

The system has not heard about a route within the required time-out period. The route has therefore been marked as bad. This may mean that a network has become unreachable for some reason--perhaps a broken connection. This message does not necessarily reflect an error condition.

Recommended Action:

Advisory message only. No action required.

Error Message:

%AT-7-BUGREPORT: AppleTalk Bug: [chars]

Explanation:

An unexpected condition was detected by the software. The router takes corrective action and continues.

Recommended Action:

Record the entire message and note any AppleTalk problems that you are experiencing. This information should be provided in a problem report to Cisco Systems.

Error Message:

%AT-5-COMPATERR1: [chars]: AppleTalk internet compatibility mode required by [node]

Explanation:

A neighboring router only supports extended AppleTalk networks with a cable range of 1, example: 25-25.

Recommended Action:

Configure the interface via which the Cisco router communicates with the neighboring router to have a cable range of one.

Error Message:

%AT-5-COMPATERR2: AppleTalk neighbor incompatibility; [atalk_net] has multiple zones

Explanation:

Although this router has neighbors which require your internetwork to observe compatibility rules, a route has been learned which has multiple zone names defined. This condition can cause inconsistencies for nodes in your internet.

Recommended Action:

Upgrade routers that can only support the original specification of AppleTalk and observe the compatibility rules in the interim.

Error Message:

%AT-5-COMPATERR3: AppleTalk neighbor incompatibility; [atalk_net] has wide cable-range

Explanation:

Although this router has neighbors which require your internetwork to observe compatibility rules, a route has been learned which has a wide (greater than one) cable range. This condition can cause inconsistencies for nodes in your internetwork.

Recommended Action:

Upgrade routers that can only support the original specification of AppleTalk and observe the compatibility rules in the interim.

Error Message:

%AT-6-CONFIGOK: [chars]: AppleTalk port enabled; verified by [node]

Explanation:

The AppleTalk configuration was verified by consulting the indicated router.

Recommended Action:

Advisory message only. No action required.

Error Message:

%AT-7-DEBUGMSG: AppleTalk Debug: [chars]

Explanation:

This message is generated by some debug commands to provide additional information about some condition in AppleTalk.

Recommended Action:

None. If you are experiencing problems in AppleTalk, these messages should be provided with any other information being provided to Cisco Systems.

Error Message:

%AT-3-DEFZONEERR: [chars]: AppleTalk port warning; default zone differs with [node]

Explanation:

This message is generated during the verification startup process when there is a disagreement between the Cisco default zone (the first zone defined after the appletalk cable-range command) and the router which confirmed the Cisco configuration. When an AppleTalk end node is first connected to a network, it joins this default zone until it is overridden.

Recommended Action:

Correct the configuration so that all routers are advertising the same default zone. This message is a warning that several router implemen-tations are known to mismanage the default zone.

Error Message:

%AT-6-DELROUTE: AppleTalk network deleted; [atalk_net] removed from routing table

Explanation:

Report that a route has aged out of the AppleTalk internetwork.

Recommended Action:

Advisory message only. No action required.

Error Message:

%AT-5-DUPADDR: [chars]: AppleTalk port restarting; node address taken by [enet]

Explanation:

Another AppleTalk node on a common network interface has claimed the same AppleTalk address that this router was already using. This error indicates a serious problem which is not expected to occur. If this is a recurring problem, there may be a physical network problem where the nodes are unable to hear each other.

Recommended Action:

None. This Cisco router will restart AppleTalk processing on the common network interface to resolve the address conflict.

Error Message:

%AT-3-IFCONFLICT: [chars]: AppleTalk port disabled; conflicts with port [chars]

Explanation:

An attempt was made to configure an interface to have the same or a conflicting AppleTalk address or cable range as another interface on the same router.

Recommended Action:

Verify that you are not specifying an AppleTalk address or cable range used previously on this router and reconfigure the interface.

Error Message:

%AT-5-INTCLEARED: [chars]: AppleTalk port restarting; interface cleared

Explanation:

This message is generated by performing the EXEC command clear interface with the interface type on an interface currently routing AppleTalk.

Recommended Action:

Advisory message only. No action required.

Error Message:

%AT-5-INTDOWN: [chars]: AppleTalk node down; Line protocol down

Explanation:

An AppleTalk hardware interface has been disabled due to a bad serial line, a configuration command, or a bad interface.

Recommended Action:

If the port has not been intentionally disabled, this message may reflect a hardware problem. If so, repair or replace the controller.

Error Message:

%AT-5-INTRESTART: [chars]: AppleTalk port restarting; protocol restarted

Explanation:

This message is generated when a configuration change necessitates resetting the hardware interface. AppleTalk has reinitialized the port.

Recommended Action:

Advisory message only. No action required.

Error Message:

Recommended Action:

Advisory message only. No action required.

Error Message:

%AT-3-MACIPBADCONF: ZONE-NAME: MacIP inoperable configur-ation, X.X.X.X

Explanation:

If the appletalk event-logging command is configured, then this message appears on the console when a MacIP server cannot begin or recover operations due to an invalid IP address configuration. This only occurs when the configured MacIP server's IP address is not valid on the same cable of any operable IP interface. An AppleTalk zone that the MacIP server is serving replaces ZONE-NAME. The MacIP server's configured IP address replaces X.X.X.X.

Note that if this error occurs, the MacIP configuration is considered invalid and is deleted.

Recommended Action:

Advisory message only. No action required.

Error Message:

%AT-6-MACIPDOWN: ZONE-NAME: MacIP server shutting down,
X.X.X.X

Explanation:

If the appletalk event-logging command is configured, then this message appears on the console when a MacIP server is no longer operational for any reason. MacIP servers will shutdown in response to MacIP configuration changes or errors, or a change in the condition or configuration of an AppleTalk or IP interface for which the MacIP server is providing service. An AppleTalk zone that the MacIP server is serving replaces ZONE-NAME. The MacIP server's configured IP address replaces X.X.X.X.

Recommended Action:

Advisory message only. No action required.

Error Message:

%AT-3-MACIPNOCABLE: ZONE-NAME: MacIP inoperable IP interface, X.X.X.X

Explanation:

If the appletalk event-logging command is configured, then this message appears on the console when a MacIP server can no longer operate due to a change in the condition of the IP interface for which it is providing service. This can occur if IP routing is shutdown on the interface, or the IP address of the interface is changed so that the MacIP server's IP address is no longer valid on the same cable. An AppleTalk zone that the MacIP server is serving replaces ZONE-NAME. The MacIP server's configured IP address replaces X.X.X.X.

Recommended Action:

Advisory message only. No action required.

Error Message:

%AT-6-MACIPUP: ZONE-NAME: MacIP server operational, X.X.X.X

Explanation:

If the appletalk event-logging command is configured, then this message appears on the console when a MacIP server has fully initialized and is ready to accept client requests. An AppleTalk zone that the MacIP server is serving replaces ZONE-NAME. The MacIP server's configured IP address replaces X.X.X.X.

Recommended Action:

Advisory message only. No action required.

Error Message:

%AT-3-MCMISMATCH: [chars]: AppleTalk port warning; zone multicast differs with [node]

Explanation:

A computed multicast address disagrees with that provided by another AppleTalk router. The other AppleTalk router may be misconfigured or faulty.

Recommended Action:

Correct the problem at the other router.

Error Message:

%AT-6-NEIGHBORUP: [chars]: AppleTalk neighbor up; [node] has restarted

Explanation:

A neighboring router was to which this router previously lost connectivity has reappeared on the network.

Recommended Action:

Advisory message only. No action required.

Error Message:

%AT-3-NETDISAGREES: [chars]: AppleTalk port disabled; network incompatible with [node]

Explanation:

The configurations of one or more other AppleTalk routers are inconsis-tent with the configuration of this router.

Recommended Action:

Reconfigure one or more of the routers.

Error Message:

%AT-4-NETINVALID: [chars]: AppleTalk node down; conflicts with active internet

Explanation:

The configuration specified for the interface conflicts with the active AppleTalk internetwork. For example, a cable range is configured which overlaps an existing route, but does not match the entry exactly.

Recommended Action:

Reconfigure the port so that it is consistent with the existing internet-work, or take any other actions necessary to resolve the conflict. AppleTalk will periodically attempt to restart the port.

Error Message:

%AT-6-NEWNEIGHBOR: [chars]: AppleTalk neighbor added; [node] is operational

Explanation:

Error Message:

%AT-6-NODEWRONG: [chars]: AppleTalk node [atalk_address] misconfigured; reply has been broadcast

Explanation:

An AppleTalk node has sent a GetNet Info request to this router, specifying an invalid network number for the source of the GetNet Info request. This situation will occur when an AppleTalk end node is moved between networks and it is therefore misconfigured for the current network.

Recommended Action:

Advisory message only. No action required.

Error Message:

%AT-6-NOPROXY: AppleTalk proxy deleted; zone [chars] freed network [atalk_net]

Explanation:

A previously configured NBP proxy has been deleted. The router will no longer convert NBP requests to a format understood by routers that sup-port only the original specification of AppleTalk.

Recommended Action:

Advisory message only. No action required.

Error Message:

%AT-3-NOSRCADDR: [chars]: AppleTalk packet error; no source address available

Explanation:

An attempt to generate an AppleTalk packet from the router has failed because there is not a valid AppleTalk source address to use to identify this router in the packet.

Recommended Action:

Configure a port to have an address or cable range and verify that the port is operational.

Error Message:
