policy in the firewall. An FTP client attempted to use a port command, or the FTP server attempted
to use the response to a pasv command, to trick the firewall into opening access to a third-party host
that is different from the two hosts engaged in the FTP connection. The command is rejected, and
the connection has been reset by the firewall. This message is for informational purposes only, but
may indicate that an attempt was made to grant or open access to unauthorized hosts.

attempted to use the port command, or an FTP server attempted to use the response to a pasv
command to open a data channel in the firewall before the client could be successfully authenticated
with the server. This condition indicated a suspicious violation. The port or pasv command and
response has been rejected by the firewall. The data channel in the firewall will not be opened until
the authentication is successfully performed. This message is for informational purposes only, but
may indicate that an illegal attempt was made to modify the firewall security policy.
Recommended Action If you suspect that an illegal attempt was made to modify the firewall security
policy, perform actions to block that attempt.
Error Message
%FW-4-HOST_TCP_ALERT_ON
: Max tcp half-open connections ([dec]) exceeded for host
[IP_address].
Explanation The maximum limit of half-open TCP connections has been exceeded. A high number
of half-open connections is being received by the protected server. This condition may indicate that
a SYN flood attack is in progress and is targeted to the specified server host. This message is for
informational purposes only, but may indicate that a SYN flood attack was attempted.
Recommended Action If this alert is issued frequently and identified to be mostly false alarms, then
the max-incomplete host threshold value is probably set too low, and there is a lot of legitimate
traffic coming in to that server. In this case, set the max-incomplete host parameter to a higher
number to avoid false alarms.

GK Messages
The following are GK-H.323 messages.
Error Message
%GK-3-GKTMP_SERVER_MARKED_UNUSABLE
: GKTMP Server: [chars]([chars]) connected to
GK: [chars] is marked unusable
Explanation The gatekeeper has marked a GKTMP server as unusable when flow control is
configured. The reason for this action could be that the average response time of the GMTMP server
is very high, or the number of messages queued to be sent to the GKTMP server is very high. These
conditions could be caused by an overloaded server or a problem with the TCP connection between
the server and the gatekeeper.
Recommended Action Check the operational status of the GKTMP server and the network link
between the server and the gatekeeper. If both are operational, enter the show running-config and
the show gatekeeper servers commands and verify the status of the GKTMP server. Enter the
debug gatekeeper server command on the Gatekeeper to enable debugging on the gatekeeper
server. Gather this information, contact your Cisco technical support representative, and provide the
representative with the gathered information.

Error Message
%GK-3-GKTMP_SERVER_OFFLINE
: GKTMP Server: [chars]([chars]) is disconnected with
Gatekeeper: [chars]
Explanation The connection between a GKTMP server and a gatekeeper has been closed. The reason
for the closed connection could be one of the following:
–
Closing of a connection by the gatekeeper because a socket read or write operation failed.
–
Loss of a TCP connection.
–
Receipt by the Gatekeeper of an unrecognized GKTMP message.
–
Unconfiguring of the GKTMP server on the gatekeeper by user-entered CLI commands.
–
Administrative shut down of the trigger on the Gatekeeper by user-entered CLI commands.
–
Closing of the connection with the gatekeeper by the GKTMP server.
Recommended Action Check the operational status of the gatekeeper and the GKTMP server. If both
are operational, check the TCP connection between the server and the gatekeeper. Check the output
of the show running-config and show gatekeeper servers commands. Verify the status of the
GKTMP server. Enter the debug gatekeeper server command on the gatekeeper to enable
debugging on the gatekeeper server. Collect this information, contact your Cisco technical support
representative, and provide the representative with the gathered information.
Error Message
%GK-5-GKTMP_SERVER_ONLINE
