Long Syntax:
FDDI.016 SMT Duplicate Address Detected via frame addressed to dest_FDDI_addr from source_FDDI_addr on net network
Description:
A big error. SMT received a frame addressed to it with the A bit set. This is a serious FDDI event. If there is another station with the same MAC address on the ring, ring initialization and frame stripping will be adversely affected. Indeed, if the ring goes down it may never recover. This station will mark the net as down, note in memory that a duplicate address was detected and NEVER come up unless the router is restarted. This ensures that the rest of the ring is not periodically harmed.

Long Syntax:
FDDI.019 Multicast table overflow with address multicast_FDDI_addr on net network

Long Syntax:
FDDI.020 protocol_type type pakcet filtered for protocol = protocol network network
