GW.002

Level:
ALWAYS
Short Syntax:
GW.002 Portable CGW router name Rel release level strtd
Long Syntax:
GW.002 Portable C Gateway router name Release release level started
Description:
Prints the name of the router (as indicated in the router), and the release level of the software load that has just started in the router.

GW.003

Level:
ALWAYS
Short Syntax:
GW.003 Unus pkt len unused_length nt network ID
Long Syntax:
GW.003 Unused packet length unused_length net network ID
Description:
The router will not be able to send or receive the last [unused length] bytes of maximum size packets.
Cause:
The configuration for the router has dictated a maximum packet size that the software will handle, which is smaller than the Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) of the network.
Action:
If the the buffer size setting on the router has been manually set, modify or remove the buffer size setting in the router. If the message persists, contact customer service.

GW.004

Level:
ALWAYS
Short Syntax:
GW.004 Sys queue type q adv alloc advisable queue length excd actual queue length
Long Syntax:
GW.004 System queue type queue advisory allocation of advisable queue length exceeded actual queue length
Description:
The system detected that there are probably an insufficent number of buffers for optimal operation. On startup, the maximum number of buffers allocated to either the permanent device input queue or the transient device output queue exceeded an advisable allocation of the entire buffer pool.
Cause:
The router configuration overlayed large routing tables for some protocol.
Action:
Ensure that the routing tables for each protocol are of a reasonable size for the network configuration. Memory allocated to routing tables cannot be used for packet buffers.
Cause:
The router in question has too many network interfaces for the amount of buffer memory available.
Action:
Reduce the number of network interfaces on the router. If there are only a reasonable number of interfaces on the router, or if a (buffer) memory upgrade is available, consider expanding the amount of memory on the router. If the message persists, contact customer service.
Cause:
The number of buffers has been manually set to a low number.
Action:
Modify or remove the number of buffers set in the router. If the message persists, contact customer service.

GW.005

Level:
ALWAYS
Short Syntax:
GW.005 Bffrs: total created avail initially free idle fair fair share amount low high water mark
Long Syntax:
GW.005 Buffers: total created available initially free idle fair share fair share amount low water high water mark
Description:
The message gives information about the number of buffers the initialization procedure created, as well as some information on parameters the buffer allocation system uses. As long as the number of buffers currently free in the router is above the low water mark, any user can allocate buffers. Below that point, any user can allocate buffers, as long as the number is less than the /f2fair share/fP.

GW.006

Level:
C-INFO
Short Syntax:
GW.006 Pkt frm nt network ID for uninit prt, disc
Long Syntax:
GW.006 Packet from net network ID for uninitialized protocol discarded
Description:
An incoming packet was in a protocol which, although recognized, did not have a handler loaded and enabled.

GW.007

Level:
C-INFO
Short Syntax:
GW.007 Ip err error_code nt network ID
Long Syntax:
GW.007 Input error error_code net network ID
Description:
A device input operation returned an error, along with a device specific error code. The input error counter for that network was incrememented, and any packet associated with that error was probably discarded.
Action:
Refer to the Router Hardware Manual under the appropriate interface to see what the specific error codes for this type of interface mean.

GW.008

Level:
U-INFO
Short Syntax:
GW.008 Ip ovfl nt network ID , disc
Long Syntax:
GW.008 Input overflow net network ID , discarded
Description:
Packets were arriving on the stated interface too quickly for the router to process them; the packet was discarded before it was ever examined by the router software because of the overload. The input overflow counter for that network was incrememented.
Cause:
This may sometimes be caused by 'broadcast storms', which are network events caused by combinations of buggy and/or out-of-date software running on network hosts which spread in a chain reaction, typically causing the network to be consumed with back to back packets (often broadcast) for a period of seconds, or occasionally, a minute or two.
Action:
If a broadcast storm is happening, fix or disable the responsible hosts.
Cause:
It may be simply caused by very heavy load.
Action:
If heavy load is the cause, and this message happens frequently, if you may be using one of the slower routers in the product line. If there is a faster CPU option available for the router you are using, consider upgrading.

GW.009

Level:
UI-ERROR
Class:
METER
Short Syntax:
GW.009 Nt dwn ip rstrt nt network ID
Long Syntax:
GW.009 Net down for input restart net network ID
Description:
When the router attempted to queue additional input operations for the network, the network had been disabled for input.
Cause:
This is caused by timing windows in the internal operation of the router; an input restart operation was requested, but when the time came to do it, input on the interface had been internally disabled. The condition is detected, and is harmless.
Action:
If the message persists, contact customer service.

GW.010

Level:
UI-ERROR
Class:
METER
Short Syntax:
GW.010 Ip q len queue_length no ip buf nt network ID
Long Syntax:
GW.010 Input queue length queue_length no input buffer net network ID
Description:
When the router attempted to queue additional input operations for the network, not enough free buffers were available to refill the input queue to the level desired; the actual level attained is listed.
Cause:
If the message occurs on an occasional basis, a traffic peak is causing the router to run short of buffers.
Action:
No action is necessary.
Cause:
The router is short of buffers for some reason. This may be because there is not enough memory on the router to provide enough buffers.
Action:
If there is a shortage of memory for buffers, either add memory to the router or reduce the number of network interfaces on the router. If the message persists, contact customer service.
Cause:
The number of buffers may have been manually set low.
Action:
Modify or remove the number of buffers setting in the router. If the message persists, contact customer service.

GW.011

Level:
U-INFO
Short Syntax:
GW.011 Op err error_code hst next_hop_host nt network ID
Long Syntax:
GW.011 Output error transmitting to error_code host next_hop_host net network ID
Description:
A device output operation returned an error, along with a device specific error code. The output error counter for that network was incrememented. The packet associated with that error will be retransmitted up to a network-dependant retransmission count. If the network adresses on the interface in question are less than the word length of the machine the router is running on, 'next hop host' will contain the network address of the next hop host. (If not, it contains an uninteresting internal pointer.)
Action:
Refer to the Router Hardware Manual under the appropriate interface to see what the specific error codes for this type of interface mean.

GW.012

Level:
U-INFO
Short Syntax:
GW.012 Op err cnt excd hst next_hop_host nt network ID
Long Syntax:
GW.012 Output error count exceeded transmitting to host next_hop_host net network ID
Description:
After the maximum allowed number of retransmissions for output error, a packet had still not been sucessfully retransmitted. The output discard counter for that network was incrememented, and the packet was discarded.
Cause:
If this message occurs more than very rarely, it probably indicates hardware transmission problems on the network in question.
Action:
Utilize appropriate level 2 network management tools such as Tokenview (for rings) or a Time Domain Reflectometer (for Ethernet) to isolate and fix the problem.

GW.013

Level:
U-INFO
Short Syntax:
GW.013 Rtrns cnt excd hst next_hop_host nt network ID
Long Syntax:
GW.013 Retransmit count exceeded transmitting to host next_hop_host net network ID
Description:
On networks which contain a low level acknowledgement, transmission failures due to no acknowledgement do not count as output errors, yet they are retransmitted. The packet will be retransmitted up to a network-dependant retransmission count. The packet in question has not been accepted after that number of retransmissions, therefore, the packet is dropped. If the network adresses on the interface in question are less than the word length of the machine the router is running on, 'next hop host' will contain the network address of the next hop host. (If not, it contains an uninteresting internal pointer.)
Cause:
If this message appears, it almost always means that the next hop host is down or detached from the network. If the next hop host is a router, and the routers are using dynamic routing, this message should only appear temporarily until the dead router is detected and traffic routed around it.

GW.014

Level:
UI-ERROR
Class:
METER
Short Syntax:
GW.014 Nt dwn op rstrt nt network ID
Long Syntax:
GW.014 Net down for output restart net network ID
Description:
When the router attempted to queue additional output operations for the network, the network had been disabled for output.
Cause:
This is caused by timing windows in the internal operation of the router. An output restart operation was requested, but when the time came to do it, output on the interface had been internally disabled. The condition is detected and is harmless.
Action:
If the message persists, contact customer service.

GW.015

Level:
UI-ERROR
Class:
METER
Short Syntax:
GW.015 Nt dwn to hst next_hop_host nt network ID
Long Syntax:
GW.015 Net down transmitting to host next_hop_host net network ID
Description:
When the router went to send a packet to a given host, the network interface it had been told to send the packet over to was not up. The output discard counter for that network was incrememented, and the packet was returned to the protocol forwarder for attention. If the network adresses on the interface in question are less than the word length of the machine the router is running on, 'next hop host' will contain the network address of the next hop host. (If not, it contains an uninteresting internal pointer.)
Cause:
This is caused by timing windows in the internal operation of the router. A packet was queued for output, but when the time came to send it, the interface was down. The condition is detected, and is harmless.
Action:
If the message persists, contact customer service.

GW.016

Level:
U-INFO
Short Syntax:
GW.016 Op ovfl to hst next_hop_host nt network ID
Long Syntax:
GW.016 Output overflow when transmitting to host next_hop_host net network ID
Description:
When the router went to send a packet to a given host, the network output queue was too full, and the packet had to be discarded. The output overflow counter for that network was incrememented, and the packet was returned to the protocol forwarder for attention. If the network adresses on the interface in question are less than the word length of the machine the router is running on, 'next hop host' will contain the network address of the next hop host. (If not, it contains an uninteresting internal pointer.)
Cause:
This is caused by the offered load in the network being higher than the bandwidth available in the output network. Since the router itself is keeping up with the traffic, there is little it can do; the hosts generating the traffic are simply sending more data than the output network can accomodate.
Action:
Increase the speed of the network in question (particularly if it is a slow speed leased line), or take measures to restrict the offered load.

GW.017

Level:
UE-ERROR
Short Syntax:
GW.017 Intfc hdw mssng nt network ID
Long Syntax:
GW.017 Interface hardware missing net network ID
Description:
When the router software went to initialize the network interface for the first time, the board did not respond on the bus. The router marks the board 'not present' and then ignores that board.
Cause:
The board is not plugged in.
Action:
With the power off, insert the board and restart the router.
Cause:
The board is misconfigured.
Action:
With the power off, and referring to the appropriate router hardware manual and configuration information, check and correct the board configuration.
Cause:
The board is broken.
Action:
Contact customer service.

GW.018

Level:
U-TRACE
Short Syntax:
GW.018 Strt nt slf tst nt network ID
Long Syntax:
GW.018 Start network self test network network ID
Description:

GW.021

Level:
UE-ERROR
Short Syntax:
GW.021 Nt up nt network ID
Long Syntax:
GW.021 Network up network network ID
Description:
After passing self-test (see Software Operator's Manual for more information on self-test), a network that was previously down has come up.

GW.022

Level:
U-TRACE
Short Syntax:
GW.022 Nt fld slf tst nt network ID
Long Syntax:
GW.022 Network failed self test network network ID
Description:
A network undergoing self-test (see Software Operator's Manual for more information on self-test) has failed the self-test.
Cause:
The exact cause is network dependant. Use any trap messages printed by the network handler, along with network specific information as revealed by the CGWCON 'Interface' command, to isolate the problem.

GW.023

Level:
UE-ERROR
Short Syntax:
GW.023 Nt dwn nt network ID
Long Syntax:
GW.023 Network down network network ID
Description:
After failing self-test (see Software Operator's Manual for more information on self-test), a network that was previously up has gone down.

GW.024

Level:
C-INFO
Short Syntax:
GW.024 Nt dwn, disc pkt to hst next_hop_host nt network ID
Long Syntax:
GW.024 Network down, discarding packet to host next_hop_host network network ID
Description:
Packets waiting for transmission on the network in question were discarded when the network went down. The discard counter for the network in question is incremented. If the network addresses on the interface in question are less than the word length of the machine the router is running on, 'next hop host' will contain the network address of the next hop host. (If not, it contains an uninteresting internal pointer.)

GW.025

Level:
UE-ERROR
Short Syntax:
GW.025 Nt fld mnt nt network ID
Long Syntax:
GW.025 Network failed maintainence network network ID
Description:
The number of maintainence checks (see Software Operator's Manual for more information on maintainence) failed in a given interval has exceeded the allowed limit (see the appropriate Router Hardware Manual for more detail on what the exact numbers are for each interface). A self test (see Software Operator's Manual for more information on maintainence) will be started on the interface; if it fails, the interface will be marked down.
Cause:
The exact cause is network dependant. Use any trap messages printed by the network handler, along with network specific information as revealed by the CGWCON 'Interface' command, to isolate the problem. A self-test of the network may reveal additional information.

GW.026

Level:
C-TRACE
Short Syntax:
GW.026 Mnt nt network ID
Long Syntax:
GW.026 Maintainence network network ID
Description:
A maintainence check (see Software Operator's Manual for more information on maintainence) has been started for the indicated interface.

GW.027

Level:
CI-ERROR
Short Syntax:
GW.027 No pkt fr mnt nt network ID
Long Syntax:
GW.027 No packet for maintainence network network ID
Description:
A buffer could not be allocated when needed by network maintaince.
Cause:
This may be caused by temporary traffic loads. Many other causes are possible.
Action:
If the message persists, contact customer service.

GW.028

Level:
U-INFO
Short Syntax:
GW.028 Snk dsc pkt prt protocol to next_hop_host
Long Syntax:
GW.028 Sink network discarding packet protocol protocol to host next_hop_host
Description:

Description:
The inteface in question was disabled in the configuration and will not come up; it can be started at any time by testing it.

GW.030

Level:
U-INFO
Short Syntax:
GW.030 heap_bytes bytes reserved by subsystem
Long Syntax:
GW.030 heap_bytes bytes of heap reserved by subsystem subsystem
Description:
At start-up time, one of the router's subsystems has reserved so many bytes of heap memory. This will be subtracted from the router's free memory before the remainder is carved into packet buffers.

GW.031

Level:
ALWAYS
Short Syntax:
GW.031 IP q alloc fl nt network ID avl number of buffers
Long Syntax:
GW.031 Input queue allocation failed net network ID available number of buffers
Description:
The system detected that there are probably an insufficent number of buffers for optimal operation. On startup, the router allocates a fixed number of buffers to each of the fast devices. If these buffers are not available, the particular interface may not perform well.

GW.032

Level:
U-INFO
Short Syntax:
GW.032 Op err error_code hst next_hop_host nt network ID
Long Syntax:
GW.032 Output error transmitting to error_code host next_hop_host net network ID
Description:
A device output operation returned an error, along with a device specific error code. The output error counter for that network was incrememented. The packet associated with that error will be retransmitted up to a network-dependant retransmission count. Usually, next_hop_host will be the MAC layer address of the next hop router or host that this packet is being sent to. The format of this MAC address depends on the network type. If next_hop_host starts with an @ (at-sign), then that network does not provide a formatted display of MAC addresses, and the following number is the hex address in router memory that the next hop host address is stored at.
Action:
Refer to the Router Hardware Manual under the appropriate interface to see what the specific error codes for this type of interface mean.

GW.033

Level:
U-INFO
Short Syntax:
GW.033 Op err cnt excd hst next_hop_host nt network ID
Long Syntax:
GW.033 Output error count exceeded transmitting to host next_hop_host net network ID
Description:
After the maximum allowed number of retransmissions for output error, a packet had still not been sucessfully retransmitted. The output discard counter for that network was incrememented, and the packet was discarded. Usually, next_hop_host will be the MAC layer address of the next hop router or host that this packet is being sent to. The format of this MAC address depends on the network type. If next_hop_host starts with an @ (at-sign), then that network does not provide formatted display of MAC addresses, and the following number is the hex address in router memory that the next hop host address is stored at.

GW.054

Level:
U-INFO
Short Syntax:
GW.054 Ip ovfl nt network ID , count pkts disc
Long Syntax:
GW.054 Input overflow net network ID , count packets discarded
Description:
Packets are arriving on the stated interface too quickly for the router's forwarders to process them; the router software discards the packets before examination because of the overload. The count of packets is the number of packets since the last time the forwarders attempted to log this message. The input overflow counter for this network ID is incremented.
Cause:
Broadcast storms, may cause this problem. These are network events caused by combinations of buggy and/or out-of-date software running on network hosts that spread in a chain reaction, typically causing the network to be consumed with back to back packets (often broadcast) for a period of seconds, or occasionally, a minute or two.
Action:
If a broadcast storm is happening, fix or disable the responsible hosts.
Cause:
A very heavy load may be the cause.
Action:
If a heavy load is the cause, and this message happens frequently, you may be using one of the slower routers in the product line. If there is a faster CPU option available for the router you are using, consider upgrading. if MONITR is dropping any ELS messages. However, the input overflow counter is accurate.

GW.055

Level:
UI-ERROR
Short Syntax:
GW.055 Nt dwn trans on nt network ID
Long Syntax:
GW.055 Net down transmitting on net network ID
Description:
When the router went to send a packet, the network interface it had been told to send the packet over to was not up. The output discard counter for that network was incremented, and the packet was returned to the protocol forwarder for attention.
Cause:
This is caused by timing windows in the internal operation of the router; a packet was queued for output, but when the time came to send it, the interface was down. The condition is detected, and is harmless.
Action:
If the message persists, contact customer service.

GW.056

Level:
UI-ERROR
Short Syntax:
GW.056 Nt out dis trans on nt network ID
Long Syntax:
GW.056 Net output disabled, transmitting on net network ID
Description:
When the router went to send a packet, the network interface it had been told to send the packet over had packet transmission disabled. The output discard counter for that network was incremented.
Cause:
This is caused by timing windows in the internal operation of the router; a packet was queued for output, but when the time came to send it, output on the interface was disabled. The condition is detected, and is harmless.
Action:
If the message persists, contact customer service.

GW.057

Level:
U-INFO
Short Syntax:
GW.057 Op ovfl nt network ID
Long Syntax:
GW.057 Output overflow when transmitting on net network ID
Description:
When the router went to send a packet, the network output queue was too full, and the packet had to be discarded. The output overflow counter for that network was incremented, and the packet was returned to the protocol forwarder for attention.
Cause:
This is caused by the offered load in the network being higher than the bandwidth available in the output network. Since the router itself is keeping up with the traffic, there is little it can do; the hosts generating the traffic are simply sending more data than the output network can accommodate.
Action:
Increase the speed of the network in question (particularly if it is a slow speed leased line), or take measures to restrict the offered load.

GW.058

Level:
U-INFO
Short Syntax:
GW.058 Op err hst next_hop_host nt network ID
Long Syntax:
GW.058 Output error transmitting to host next_hop_host net network ID
Description:
A packet has not been sucessfully retransmitted. The output error counter for that network is incremented, and the packet is discarded. Usually, next_hop_host will be the MAC layer address of the next hop router or host that this packet is being sent to. The format of this MAC address depends on the network type. If next_hop_host starts with an @ (at-sign), then that network does not provide formatted display of MAC addresses, and the following number is the hex address in router memory that the next hop host address is stored at.
Cause:
If this message occurs more than very rarely, it probably indicates hardware transmission problems on the network in question.
Action:
Utilize appropriate level 2 network management tools such as Tokenview (for rings) or a Time Domain Reflectometer (for Ethernet) to isolate and fix the problem.

GW.059

Cause:
This is normal on router startup.

GW.060

Level:
C-INFO
Short Syntax:
GW.060 Buffs alloc with reduction reduction
Long Syntax:
GW.060 Buffers allocated with reduction by reduction of private buffers
Description:
The router has completed the buffer allocations. If the input networks could not get all the buffers that were requested, the reduction will be non-zero.
Cause:
This message always happens on startup of the router. However, a non-zero reduction indicates that the router is close to being short on buffer memory. The higher the reduction, the more severe the buffer memory shortage. However, the shortage is not so severe that the router will not operate, but performance may be impaired.
Action:
Upgrade size of buffer memory. Choose smaller buffer size on those devices (Token-Ring, Serial Line) where that is configurable.

GW.061

Level:

Shortage of buffer memory. (Particularly if preceeded by ELS message GW.064.)
Action:
Upgrade size of buffer memory.
Action:
Choose smaller buffer size on those devices (Token-Ring, Serial Line) where that is configurable.
Cause:
Shortage of heap memory. (Particularly if preceeded by ELS message GW.063.)
Action:
Reduce routing table sizes. Increase size of data memory.
Cause:
Buffer allocation routine did not accurately predict how many buffers could be allocated.
Action:
On some configurations, some portions of the buffer memory are unuseable. The pre-allocator does not take this into account, so a few buffer allocations may fail.

GW.062

Level:

Action:
Upgrade size of buffer memory.
Action:
Choose smaller buffer size on those devices (Token-Ring, Serial Line) where that is configurable.
Cause:
