ELS Messages for IP Tunnel Subsystem


IPT.001

Level:
UI-ERROR
Short Syntax:
IPT.001 Inv dst name
Long Syntax:
IPT.001 Invalid destination name
Description:
The destination configured for the tunnel is invalid. The name is either unknown or it is not a valid IP address.

IPT.002

Level:
UE-ERROR
Short Syntax:
IPT.002 Drop inv pkt from address , prot protocol
Long Syntax:
IPT.002 Dropping invalid packet from address , protocol protocol
Description:
A tunnel packet was dropped because it either had an invalid source address (which did not correspond to any tunnel's destination address) or because the data payload within the packet was not configured within the destination tunnel.

IPT.003

Level:
C-INFO
Short Syntax:
IPT.003 Rcv protocol pkt from name ( address )
Long Syntax:
IPT.003 Receiving protocol packet from name ( address )
Description:
A tunneled packet was received from the specified tunnel endpoint.

IPT.004

Level:
C-INFO
Short Syntax:
IPT.004 Snd protocol pkt to name ( address )
Long Syntax:
IPT.004 Sending protocol packet to name ( address )
Description:
A tunneled packet was transmitted to the specified tunnel endpoint.

IPT.005

Level:
UI-ERROR
Short Syntax:
IPT.005 Too many encaps, drop pkt
Long Syntax:
IPT.005 Too many encapsulations, dropping packet
Description:
The tunnel header can not be prepended to the packet due to insufficient header space.
Cause:
The packet is passing through multiple tunnels.
Action:
Reconfigure to guarantee packets only pass through one tunnel.

IPT.006

Level:
UE-ERROR
Short Syntax:
IPT.006 Endpt name ( address ) unrch, deny conn req
Long Syntax:
IPT.006 Endpoint name ( address ) unreachable, denying connection request
Description:
The local router transmitted a UDP Discard packet to the named remote tunnel endpoint to determine if the tunnel can be created. The UDP packet was returned as undeliverable thus connections to this remote destination by upper layers in the stack must be denied.
Cause:
The destination address is incorrect or the remote tunnel endpoint is down.

IPT.007

Level:
UE-ERROR
Short Syntax:
IPT.007 Prot protocol unavail at dest name ( address )
Long Syntax:
IPT.007 Protocol protocol unavailable at destination name ( address )
Description:
The named remote endpoint is not accepting packets of the specified type. If the tunnel is not encrypted or authenticated then the IP Tunnel is disconnected. Otherwise, the tunnel is left up but packets are discarded rather than risk the transmission of that data via unsecured interfaces.
Cause:
The remote tunnel endpoint is misconfigured or it does not support the protocol which this tunnel is attempting to use.

IPT.008

Level:
UE-ERROR
Short Syntax:
IPT.008 Endpt name ( address ) unrch, disc tnl
Long Syntax:
IPT.008 Endpoint name ( address ) unreachable, disconnect tunnel
Description:
The remote tunnel endpoint has become unreachable. It is either down or the path to it is down due to the failure of an intermediate router.

IPT.009

Level:
C-INFO
Short Syntax:
IPT.009 Rstrt MTU disc, MTU= MTU , dest name ( address )
Long Syntax:
IPT.009 Restarting MTU discovery, MTU= MTU , destination name ( address )
Description:
The MTU discovery interval has elapsed so the MTU (maximum packet size) for the specified destination has been reset to its configured initial value.

IPT.010

Level:
C-INFO
Short Syntax:
IPT.010 Rcv'd Frag Req'd. Adjusting MTU old MTU to new MTU , dest name ( address )
Long Syntax:
IPT.010 Received Fragmentation Required. Adjusting MTU from old MTU to new MTU , destination name ( address )
Description:
Some router along the path from the local router to the specified destination rejected a packet because it was too large. MTU discovery is enabled so the MTU is automatically adjusted downward so subsequent packets can be transmitted without fragmentation. This event may occur several times until an MTU is found which does not require fragmentation within the tunnel.

IPT.011

Level:
UI-ERROR
Short Syntax:
IPT.011 Rcv'd Frag Req'd but MTU discovery disabled, dest name ( address )
Long Syntax:
IPT.011 Received Fragmentation Required but MTU discovery is disabled, destination name ( address )
Description:
Some router along the path between the local router and the specified destination rejected a packet because it was too large. The local router can not adjust its packet size because MTU discovery has been disabled by the user.
Action:
Enable MTU discovery.

IPT.012

Level:
UI-ERROR
Short Syntax:
IPT.012 All tnl slots full, refuse con req to dest name ( address )
Long Syntax:
IPT.012 All tunnel slots are full, refusing connection req to destination name ( address )
Description:
The number of simutaneously connected remote endpoints has reached its configured limit. Additional connection requests must be refused.
Action:
Increase the number of simultaneous endpoints via the Tunnel configuration commands.

IPT.013

Level:
UE-ERROR
Short Syntax:
IPT.013 MTU driven to ZERO, dest name ( address )
Long Syntax:
IPT.013 Maximum Transfer Unit has been reduced to ZERO, destination name ( address )
Description:
MTU discovery has lowered the MTU all the way down to ZERO. This is an error condition which only occurs if a tunnels are misconfigured such that a TUNNEL's interface address is used as the tunnel DESTINATION address in another router. The tunnel interface on the local router is marked down.
Action:
Verify the IP tunnel destination address refers to an address on a PHYSICAL interface on the remote router. This can be a dial-up circuit or a physical leased line. It can NOT address another IP tunnel's IP address.

IPT.014

Level:
UI-ERROR
Short Syntax:
IPT.014 Rcv'd Frag Req'd. Pkt dscrd, dest name ( address )
Long Syntax:
IPT.014 Received Fragmentation Required. Packet discarded, destination name ( address )
Description:
Some router along the path between the local router and the specified destination rejected a packet because it was too large. The tunnel on the local as gone down and come up again since the original packet was sent out. This message indicates there is a problem bringing the tunnel up which may be remedied by enabling MTU discovery to the specified destination.
Action:
Enable MTU discovery.
