debug serial interface

Use the debug serial interface EXEC command to display information on a serial connection failure. The no form of this command disables debugging output.

[no] debug serial interface

Usage Guidelines

If the show interface serial command shows that the line and protocol are down, you can use the debug serial interface command to isolate a timing problem as the cause of a connection failure. If the keepalive values in the mineseq, yourseen, and myseen fields are not incrementing in each subsequent line of output, there is a timing or line problem at one end of the connection.


Note   While the debug serial interface command typically does not generate a lot of output, nevertheless use it cautiously during production hours. When SMDS is enabled, for example, it can generate considerable output.


The output of the debug serial interface command can vary, depending on the type of WAN configured for an interface: Frame Relay, HDLC, HSSI, SMDS, or X.25. The output also can vary depending on the type of encapsulation configured for that interface. The hardware platform also can affect debug serial interface output.

The following sections show and describe sample debug serial interface output for various configurations.

Sample Displays

Debug Serial Interface for Frame Relay Encapsulation

The following message is displayed if the encapsulation for the interface is Frame Relay (or HDLC) and the router attempts to send a packet containing an unknown packet type:

Illegal serial link type code xxx

Debug Serial Interface for HDLC

The following is sample output from the debug serial interface command for an HDLC connection when keepalives are enabled. This output shows that the remote router is not receiving all the keepalives the router is sending. When the difference in the values in the myseq and mineseen fields exceeds three, the line goes down and the interface is reset.

describes the significant fields.

Table 119 Debug Serial Interface Field Descriptions for HDLC 

Field
Description

Serial1

Interface through which the serial connection is taking place.

HDLC

The serial connection is an HDLC connection.

myseq 636119

The myseq counter increases by one each time the router sends a keepalive packet to the remote router.

mineseen 636119

The value of the mineseen counter reflects the last myseq sequence number the remote router has acknowledged receiving from the router. The remote router stores this value in its yourseen counter and sends that value in a keepalive packet to the router.

yourseen 515032

The yourseen counter reflects the value of the myseq sequence number the router has received in a keepalive packet from the remote router.

line up

The connection between the routers is maintained. Value changes to "line down" if the values of the myseq and myseen fields in a keepalive packet differ by more than three. Value returns to "line up" when the interface is reset. If the line is in loopback mode, ("looped") appears after this field.


The previous example shows that after missing three keepalives, the line goes down and the interface is reset. However, the interface is also reset when two keepalives are missed, but the line is not marked as "down." This is done in an attempt to restart traffic on the interface without bringing the line down, as shown in the following output:

*Mar 18 08:07:29.057: Serial3/2: HDLC myseq 604562, mineseen 604562, yourseen 259336, line up 
*Mar 18 08:07:39.053: Serial3/2: HDLC myseq 604563, mineseen 604563, yourseen 259337, line up 
*Mar 18 08:07:49.081: Serial3/2: HDLC myseq 604564, mineseen 604564, yourseen 259338, line up 
*Mar 18 08:07:59.057: Serial3/2: HDLC myseq 604565, mineseen 604565, yourseen 259339, line up 
*Mar 18 08:08:09.073: Serial3/2: HDLC myseq 604566, mineseen 604565, yourseen 259340, line up 
*Mar 18 08:08:19.057: Serial3/2: Reset from PC 0x6DEA0 
*Mar 18 08:08:19.061: Serial3/2: HDLC myseq 604567, mineseen 604565, yourseen 259341, line up 
*Mar 18 08:08:29.057: Serial3/2: HDLC myseq 604568, mineseen 604568, yourseen 259342, line up 
*Mar 18 08:08:39.061: Serial3/2: HDLC myseq 604569, mineseen 604569, yourseen 259343, line up 
*Mar 18 08:08:49.065: Serial3/2: HDLC myseq 604570, mineseen 604570, yourseen 259344, line up 
*Mar 18 08:08:59.053: Serial3/2: HDLC myseq 604571, mineseen 604571, yourseen 259345, line up 

Even though the "Reset from PC" message appears to occur when there is only a difference of 1 between myseq and mineseen, this message applies to the condition shown in the immediately following line (notice that the timestamp is only a few milliseconds later) where the difference is 2. After the reset, the line has recovered and the difference between myseq and mineseen is zero.

describes additional error messages that the debug serial interface command can generate for HDLC.

Table 120 Debug Serial Interface Error Messages for HDLC 

Field
Description

Illegal serial link type code xxx, PC = 0xnnnnnn

This message is displayed if the router attempts to send a packet containing an unknown packet type.

Illegal HDLC serial type code xxx, PC = 0xnnnnn

This message is displayed if an unknown packet type is received.

Serial 0: attempting to restart

This message is displayed periodically if the interface is down. The hardware is then reset to hopefully correct the problem.

Serial 0: Received bridge packet sent to nnnnnnnnn

This message is displayed if a bridge packet is received over a serial interface configured for HDLC, and bridging is not configured on that interface.


Debug Serial Interface for HSSI

On an HSSI interface, the debug serial interface command can generate the following additional error message:

HSSI0: Reset from 0xnnnnnnn

This message indicates that the HSSI hardware has been reset. The 0xnnnnnnn variable is the address of the routine requesting that the hardware be reset; this value is useful only to development engineers.

Debug Serial Interface for ISDN Basic Rate

describes error messages that the debug serial interface command can generate for ISDN Basic Rate.

Table 121 Debug Serial Interface Error Messages for ISDN Basic Rate 

Message
Description

BRI: D-chan collision

A collision on the ISDN D-channel has occurred; the software will retry transmission.

Received SID Loss of Frame Alignment int.

The ISDN hardware has lost frame alignment. This usually indicates a problem with the ISDN network.

Unexpected IMP int: ipr = 0xnn

The ISDN hardware received an unexpected interrupt. The 0xnn variable indicates the value returned by the interrupt register.

BRI(d): RX Frame Length Violation. Length=n

BRI(d): RX Nonoctet Aligned Frame

BRI(d): RX Abort Sequence

BRI(d): RX CRC Error

BRI(d): RX Overrun Error

BRI(d): RX Carrier Detect Lost

Any of these messages can be displayed when a receive error occurs on one of the ISDN channels. The (d) indicates which channel it is on. These messages can indicate a problem with the ISDN network connection.

BRI0: Reset from 0xnnnnnnn

The BRI hardware has been reset. The 0xnnnnnnn variable is the address of the routine that requested that the hardware be reset; it is useful only to development engineers.

BRI(d): Bad state in SCMs scm1=x scm2=x scm3=x

BRI(d): Bad state in SCONs scon1=x scon2 =x scon3=x

BRI(d): Bad state ub SCR; SCR=x

Any of these messages can be displayed if the ISDN hardware is not in the proper state. The hardware is then reset. If the message is displayed constantly, it usually indicates a hardware problem.

BRI(d): Illegal packet encapsulation=n

This message is displayed if a packet is received, but the encapsulation used for the packet is not recognized. It can indicate that the interface is misconfigured.


Debug Serial Interface for an MK5025 Device

describes the additional error messages that the debug serial interface command can generate for an MK5025 device.

Table 122 Debug Serial Interface Err or Messages for an MK5025 Device 

Message
Description

MK5(d): Reset from 0xnnnnnnnn

This message indicates that the hardware has been reset. The 0xnnnnnnn variable is the address of the routine that requested that the hardware be reset; it is useful only to development engineers.

MK5(d): Illegal packet encapsulation=n

This message is displayed if a packet is received, but the encapsulation used for the packet is not recognized. Possibly an indication that the interface is misconfigured.

MK5(d): No packet available for packet realignment

This message is displayed in cases where the serial driver attempted to get a buffer (memory) and was unable to do so.

MK5(d): Bad state in CSR0=(x)

This message is displayed if the hardware is not in the proper state. The hardware is then reset. If this message is displayed constantly, it usually indicates a hardware problem.

MK5(d): New serial state=n

This message is displayed to indicate that the hardware has interrupted the software. It displays the state that the hardware is reporting.

MK5(d): DCD is down.

MK5(d): DCD is up.

If the interrupt indicates that the state of carrier has changed, one of these messages is displayed to indicate the current state of DCD.


Debug Serial Interface for SMDS Encapsulation

When encapsulation is set to SMDS, debug serial interface displays SMDS packets that are sent and received, as well as any error messages resulting from SMDS packet transmission.

The error messages that the debug serial interface command can generate for SMDS follow.

The following message indicates that a new protocol requested SMDS to encapsulate the data for transmission. SMDS is not yet able to encapsulate the protocol.

SMDS: Error on Serial 0, encapsulation bad protocol = x

The following message indicates that SMDS was asked to encapsulate a packet, but no corresponding destination E.164 SMDS address was found in any of the static SMDS tables or in the ARP tables:

SMDS send: Error in encapsulation, no hardware address, type = x

The following message indicates that a protocol such as CLNS or IP has been enabled on an SMDS interface, but the corresponding multicast addresses have not been configured. The n variable displays the link type for which encapsulation was requested.

SMDS: Send, Error in encapsulation, type=n

The following messages can occur when a corrupted packet is received on an SMDS interface. The router expected x, but received y.

SMDS: Invalid packet, Reserved NOT ZERO, x y
SMDS: Invalid packet, TAG mismatch x y
SMDS: Invalid packet, Bad TRAILER length x y

The following messages can indicate an invalid length for an SMDS packet:

SMDS: Invalid packet, Bad BA length x
SMDS: Invalid packet, Bad header extension length x
SMDS: Invalid packet, Bad header extension type x
SMDS: Invalid packet, Bad header extension value x

The following messages are displayed when the debug serial interface command is enabled:

Interface Serial 0 Sending SMDS L3 packet:
SMDS: dgsize:x type:0xn src:y dst:z

If the debug serial interface command is enabled, the following message can be displayed when a packet is received on an SMDS interface, but the destination SMDS address does not match any on that interface:

SMDS: Packet n, not addressed to us

debug serial packet

Use the debug serial packet EXEC command to display more detailed serial interface debugging information than you can obtain using debug serial interface command. The no form of this command disables debugging output.

[no] debug serial packet

Usage Guidelines

The debug serial packet command generates output that is dependent on the type of serial interface and the encapsulation that is running on that interface. The hardware platform also can impact debug serial packet output.

The debug serial packet command displays output for only SMDS encapsulations.

Sample Display

The following is sample output from the debug serial packet command when SMDS is enabled on the interface.

Router# debug serial packet

Interface Serial2 Sending SMDS L3 packet:
SMDS Header: Id: 00 RSVD: 00 BEtag: EC Basize: 0044
Dest:E18009999999FFFF Src:C12015804721FFFF Xh:04030000030001000000000000000000
SMDS LLC: AA AA 03 00 00 00 80 38
SMDS Data: E1 19 01 00 00 80 00 00 0C 00 38 1F 00 0A 00 80 00 00 0C 01 2B 71
SMDS Data: 06 01 01 0F 1E 24 00 EC 00 44 00 02 00 00 83 6C 7D 00 00 00 00 00
SMDS Trailer: RSVD: 00 BEtag: EC Length: 0044

As the above shows, when encapsulation is set to SMDS, debug serial packet displays the entire SMDS header (in hex), as well as some payload data on transmit or receive. This information is useful only when you have an understanding of the SMDS protocol. The first line of the output indicates either Sending or Receiving.

debug service-module

Use the debug service-module EXEC command to display debugging information that monitors the detection and clearing of network alarms on the integrated channel service unit/data service unit (CSU/DSU) modules. The no form of this command disables debugging output.

[no] debug service-module

Usage Guidelines

Use this command to enable and disable debug logging for the serial 0 and serial 1 interfaces when an integrated CSU/DSU is present. This command enables debugging on all interfaces.

Network alarm status can also be viewed through the use of the show service-module command.


Note   The debug output varies depending on the type of service module installed in the router.


Sample Display

The following is sample output from the debug service-module command:

Router# debug service-module

SERVICE_MODULE(1): loss of signal ended after duration 00:05:36
SERVICE_MODULE(1): oos/oof ended after duration 01:05:14
SERVICE_MODULE(0): Unit has no clock
SERVICE_MODULE(0): detects loss of signal
SERVICE_MODULE(0): loss of signal ended after duration 00:00:33

debug sgbp error

To enable the display of debug messages about routing problems between members of a stack group, use the debug sgbp error command in privileged EXEC mode. The no form of this command disables debugging output.

[no] debug sgbp error

Usage Guidelines

Enable the debug sgbp error command to enable the display of debug messages about routing problems between members of a stack group.


Note   In unusual cases you may see debug messages not documented on this command reference page. These debug messages are intended for expert diagnostic interpretation by the Cisco Technical Assistance Center (TAC).


Sample Display

One common configuration error is setting a source IP address for a stack member that does not match the locally defined IP address for the same stack member. The following debug output shows the error message that results from this misconfiguration:

Systema# debug sgbp error

%SGBP-7-DIFFERENT - systemb's addr 10.1.1.2 is different from hello's addr 10.3.4.5

This error means that the source IP address of the Stack Group Bidding Protocol (SGBP) hello message received from systemb does not match the IP address configured locally for systemb (through the sgbp member command). Correct this configuaration error by going to systemb and checking for multiple interfaces by which the SGBP hello can send the message.

Another common error message is:

Systema# debug sgbp error

%SGBP-7-MISCONF, Possible misconfigured member routerk (10.1.1.6)

This error message means that routerk is not defined locally, but is defined on another stack member. Correct this configuration error by defining routerk across all members of the stack group using the sgbp member command.

The following error message indicates that an SGBP peer is leaving the stack group:

Systema# debug sgbp error

%SGBP-7-LEAVING:Member systemc leaving group stack1

This error message indicates that the peer systemc is leaving the stack group. Systemc could be leaving the stack group intentionally, or a connectivity problem may exist.

The following error message indicates that an SGBP event was detected from an unknown peer:

Systema# debug sgbp error

%SGBP-7-UNKNOWPEER:Event 0x10 from peer at 172.21.54.3

An SGBP event came from a network host that was not recognizable as an SGBP peer. Check to see if a network media error could have corrupted the address, or if peer equipment is malfunctioning to generate corrupted packets. Depending on the network topology and firewalling of your network, SGBP packets from a nonpeer host could indicate probing and attempts to breach security.


Caution If there is a chance your network is under attack, obtain knowledgeable assistance from TAC.

debug sgbp hellos

To enable the display of debug messages for authentication between stack members, use the debug sgbp hellos command in privileged EXEC mode. The no form of this command disables debugging output.

[no] debug sgbp hellos

Usage Guidelines

Enable the debug sgbp hellos command to enable the display of debug messages for authentication between routers configured as members of a stack group.


Note   In unusual cases you may see debug messages not documented on this command reference page. These debug messages are intended for expert diagnostic interpretation by the Cisco Technical Assistance Center (TAC).


Sample Display

The following output from the debug sgbp hellos command shows systema sending a successful Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP) challenge to and receiving a response from systemb. Similarly, systemb sends out a challenge and receives a response from systema:

systema# debug sgbp hellos

%SGBP-7-CHALLENGE: Send Hello Challenge to systemb group stack1
%SGBP-7-CHALLENGED: Hello Challenge message from member systemb (10.1.1.2)
%SGBP-7-RESPONSE: Send Hello Response to systemb group stack1
%SGBP-7-CHALLENGE: Send Hello Challenge to systemb group stack1
%SGBP-7-RESPONDED: Hello Response message from member systemb (10.1.1.2)
%SGBP-7-AUTHOK: Send Hello Authentication OK to member systemb (10.1.1.2)
%SGBP-7-INFO: Addr = 10.1.1.2 Reference = 0xC347DF7
%SGBP-5-ARRIVING: New peer event for member systemb

This debug output is self-explanitory.

If authentication fails, you may see one of the following messages in your debug output:

%SGBP-7-AUTHFAILED - Member systemb failed authentication

This error message means that the remote systemb password for the stack group does not match the password defined on systema. To correct this error, make sure that both systema and systemb have the same password defined using the username command.

%SGBP-7-NORESP -Fail to respond to systemb group stack1, may not have password.

This error message means that systema does not have a username or password defined. To correct this error, define a common group password across all stack members using the username command.

debug smrp all

Use the debug smrp all EXEC command to display information about Simple Multicast Routing Protocol (SMRP) activity. The no form of this command disables debugging output.

[no] debug smrp all

Usage Guidelines

Because the debug smrp all command displays all SMRP debugging output, it is processor intensive and should not be enabled when memory is scarce or in very high traffic situations.

For general debugging, use the debug smrp all command and turn off excessive transactions with the no debug smrp transaction command. This combination of commands will display various state changes and events without displaying every transaction packet. For debugging a specific feature such as a routing problem, use the debug smrp route and debug smrp transaction commands to see if packets are sent and received and which specific routes are affected. The show smrp traffic command is highly recommended as a troubleshooting method because it displays the SMRP counters.

For examples of the type of output you may see, refer to each of the commands listed in the "Related Commands" section.

debug smrp group

Use the debug smrp group EXEC command to display information about SMRP group activity. The no form of this command disables debugging output.

[no] debug smrp group

Usage Guidelines

The debug smrp group command displays information when a group is created or deleted and when a forwarding entry for a group is created, changed, or deleted.

For more information, refer to the show smrp group command described in the Network Protocols Command Reference, Part 2.

Sample Display

The following is sample output from the debug smrp group command showing a port being created and deleted on group AT 20.34. (AT signifies that this is an AppleTalk network group.)

Router# debug smrp group

SMRP: Group AT 20.34, created on port 20.1 by 20.2
SMRP: Group AT 20.34, deleted on port 20.1

lists the messages that may be generated with the debug smrp group command concerning the forwarding table.

Table 123 Debug SMRP Group Message Descriptions

New route entry added to the routing table with the specified number of hops and tunnels.

Route address, from address - overlaps existing route

Route entry received from the specified address overlaps an existing route and was ignored.

Route address, poisoned by address

Route entry has been poisoned by neighbor. Poisoned routes have distance of 255.

Route address, poison notification from address

A poison notification is a poisoned route that is received from a non-parent port.

Route address, worsened by parent address

The distance to the route has worsened (become higher), received from the parent neighbor.

Route address, improved via address - number -> number hop, number -> number tunnel

The distance to the route has improved (become lower), received from a neighbor.

Route address, switched to address - higher address than address

A tie condition exists, and because this router had the highest network address, it was used to forward the packet.

Route address, parent port changed address -> address

Parent port address change occurred. The parent port address of a physical network segment determines which router should handle Join Group and Leave Group requests.

describes the significant fields in these displays.

Table 129 Debug SNMP Packet Field Descriptions 

Field
Description

Get-next request

Indicates what type of SNMP PDU the packet is. Possible types are:

Get request

Get-next request

Response

Set request

V1 Trap

Get-bulk request

Inform request

V2 Trap

Depending on the type of PDU, the rest of this line displays different fields. The indented lines following this line list the MIB object names and corresponding values.

reqid

Request identification number. This number is used by the SNMP manager to match responses with requests.

errstat

Error status. All PDU types other than response will have an errstat of 0. If the agent encounters an error while processing the request, it will set errstat in the response PDU to indicate the type of error.

erridx

Error index. This value will always be 0 in all PDUs other than responses. If the agent encounters an error, the erridx will be set to indicate which varbind in the request caused the error. For example, if the agent had an error on the 2nd varbind in the request PDU, the response PDU will have an erridx equal to 2.

nonrptr

Non-repeater value. This value and the maximum repetition value are used to determine how many varbinds are returned. Refer to RFC 1905 for details.

maxreps

Maximum repetition value. This value and the non-repeater value are used to determine how many varbinds are returned. Refer to RFC 1905 for details.

ent

Enterprise object identifier. Refer to RFC 1215 for details.

gentrap

Generic trap value. Refer to RFC 1215 for details.

spectrap

Specific trap value. Refer to RFC 1215 for details.

debug sntp adjust

Use the debug sntp adjust EXEC command to display information about SNTP clock adjustments. The no form of this command disables debugging output.

[no] debug sntp adjust

Sample Displays

The following is sample output from the debug sntp adjust command output when an offset to the time reported by the configured NTP server is calculated. The offset indicates the difference between the router time and the actual time (as kept by the server) and is displayed in milliseconds. The clock time is then successfully changed to the accurate time by adding the offset to the current router time.

Router# debug sntp adjust

Delay calculated, offset 3.48
Clock slewed.

The following is sample output from the debug sntp adjust command when an offset to the time reported by a broadcast server is calculated. Since the packet is a broadcast packet, no transmission delay can be calculated. However, in this case, the offset is too large, so the clock is reset to the correct time.

Router# debug sntp adjust

No delay calculated, offset 11.18
Clock stepped.

debug sntp packets

Use the debug sntp packets EXEC command to display information about SNTP packets sent and received. The no form of this command disables debugging output.

debug source error

Use the debug source error EXEC command to display source-route bridging errors. The no form of this command disables debugging output.

[no] debug source error

Usage Guidelines

The debug source error command displays some output also found in the debug source bridge output. Refer to the debug source bridge command for other possible output.

Sample Displays

In all of the following examples of debug source error command messages, the variable number is the Token Ring interface. For example, if the line of output starts with SRB1, the output relates to the Token Ring 1 interface. SRB indicates a source-route bridging message. RSRB indicates a remote source-route bridging message. SRTLB indicates a source-route translational bridging message.

In the following example, a packet of protocol protocol-type was dropped:

SRBnumber drop: Routed protocol protocol-type

In the following example, an Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) packet was dropped. ARP is defined in RFC 826.

SRBnumber drop:TYPE_RFC826_ARP

In the following example, the current Cisco IOS version does not support Qualified Logical Link Control (QLLC). Reconfigure the router with an image that has the IBM feature set.

RSRB: QLLC not supported in version version
Please reconfigure.

In the following example, the packet was dropped because the outgoing interface of the router was down:

RSRB IF: outgoing interface not up, dropping packet

In the following example, the router received an out-of-sequence IP sequence number in a Fast Sequenced Transport (FST) packet. FST has no recovery for this problem like TCP encapsulation does.

RSRB FST: bad sequence number dropping.

In the following example, the router was unable to locate the virtual interface:

RSRB: couldn't find virtual interface

In the following example, the peer router's TCP queue is full. TCPD indicates that this is a TCP debug.

RSRB TCPD: tcp queue full for peer

In the following example, the router was unable to send data to the peer router. A result of 1 indicates that the TCP queue is full. A result of -1 indicates that the RSRB peer is closed.

RSRB TCPD: tcp send failed fo
