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 default zone (the first zone defined after the appletalk cable-range command) and the router that confirmed the 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. Note that several router implementations are known to mismanage the default zone.

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

Explanation    A route aged out of the AppleTalk internetwork.

Recommended Action    Informational message only. No action required.

Error Message    %AT-3-DOMLOOP: LOOP Detected on Domain [dec] [ [chars] ]

Explanation    A routing loop was detected by the domain router.

Loops are not allowed; however, a loop detection process running in the background of the domain router tries to spot a loop situation. Whenever a domain router gets a new zone list from one of the domains that is identical to one in the main routing table and the length of the network range matches, it starts a loop detection process.

A loop detection process sends several AppleTalk loop packets, which are NBP packets of type "LoopBack". When a loop packet is received on the interface that does not belong to the original domain, the domain router shuts off all the domains, and subsequently all the interfaces in these domains, which are involved in the loop.

Loop detection may not catch all types of loops. It is the responsibility of the user to make sure that no loop exists.

Recommended Action    Disable the cause of the routing loop. Restart the interfaces involved.

Error Message    %AT-3-DOMOVERFLOW: Remap Range OVERFLOW for [chars] Domain [dec]

Explanation    The remap range overflowed. If a network (range) cannot fit inside the remapping range, then it is not accepted until more remapping room is available. When overflow occurs, all interfaces in the domain are disabled.

Recommended Action    Increase the remapping range. Restart the interfaces.

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

Explanation    Another AppleTalk node on a common network interface claimed the same AppleTalk address that this router was using. This error indicates a serious, unexpected problem. If it recurs, a physical network problem in which the nodes cannot hear each other may exist.

Recommended Action    This router will restart AppleTalk processing on the common network interface to resolve the address conflict. No action required.

Unit [dec] (ranges 0-14):

Indicates the Multibus jumper setting for the ciscoBus controller, or in the Cisco 7000, a slot number.

daughter controller [dec] (ranges 0-3):

Indicates the ciscoBus relative slot number (0 to 3, or in the Cisco 7000, 0 to 4) of the daughter card that failed the test.

failed [chars] test ([chars]= memd read, memd write):

If the failed test was memd read, the processor was able to write to shared ciscoBus buffer memory from the ciscoBus registers, but was unable to read back that memory through special commands to the daughter card.

If the failed test was memd write, writes to the memory device through the daughter card were not verified successfully with reads through the ciscoBus controller.

The daughter card under test responds successfully to some commands (otherwise the software would have received a DAUGHTER_NO_RSP message), but its memory device tests failed. The daughter card must be able to write to some memory device addresses; otherwise, it cannot respond to any commands.

Recommended Action    Copy the error message exactly as it appears, and report it to your technical support representative.

Error Message    %CI-4-COND: Restarting with [dec] recent soft power failures

Explanation    A soft power failure --also called a soft shutdown--occurs when the router shuts itself down because it has detected an overheating condition. When the temperature increases past the "board shutdown" trip point, the cards are shutdown but the power supplies, fans, and chassis interface continue to run.

If the system then cools past the restart trip point, the system restarts. The system counts the number of soft shutdowns and decreases its soft reset counter accordingly from its maximum value to prevent the cycle from repeating indefinitely. If the counter reaches zero, the system undergoes a hard shutdown, which requires a power cycle to recover from. The soft shutdown counter is reset to its maximum value after the system has been up for 6 hours.
