Explanation The session parameters proposed by an LDP peer differ from those preferred by the
platform. The differences are not sufficient to prevent the LDP session from being established, but
they may have an impact on the label distribution operation. The parameters identified may relate to
the optional path vector-based loop detection mechanism. If so, the IETF LDP specification
recommends that when loop detection is enabled in part of a network, all LSRs in that portion of the
network must be configured with loop detection enabled and with the same path vector limit.

log, contact your Cisco technical support representative, and provide the representative with the
gathered information.
TUN Messages
The following are tunnel messages.
Error Message
%TUN-5-RECURDOWN
: [chars] temporarily disabled due to recursive routing
Explanation When you are routing a payload protocol over a carrier protocol (tunneling IP over IP,
for example), it is possible to misconfigure your network so that you will try to route to the tunnel
destination address via the tunnel. This condition is usually caused by a misconfiguration of the
tunnel or a temporary instability caused by route flapping elsewhere in your network. It is important
to take steps to ensure that routing information between the carrier networks and the payload
networks is not allowed to mix. If the router discovers a recursive routing problem, it will shut down
the tunnel interface for a few minutes so that the situation that is causing this problem can resolve
itself as routing protocols converge. If the problem is caused by misconfiguration, the link may
oscillate indefinitely.
Recommended Action No action is required.
TUNSS Messages
The following are tunnel security messages.
Error Message
%TUNSS-3-PROTECTION_PROCESS_FAIL
: Failed to create tunnel security process
Explanation A start process for tunnel protection has failed.
Recommended Action Copy the error message exactly as it appears on the console or in the system
log, contact your Cisco technical support representative, and provide the representative with the
gathered information.

configuration command. Refer to the CTRC documentation for information on how to obtain a valid
license key.
Error Message
%TXCONN-3-BADMODE
: Unknown mode '[chars]' configured for server [chars]
Explanation The mode configured for the CTRC server was rejected by the remote database server.
Recommended Action Contact your SNA network administrator to determine the correct name of the
mode to use to connect to DB2 on the remote database server.
Error Message
%TXCONN-3-BADRLU
: Bad remote LU '[chars]' configured for server [chars]
Explanation The remote LU configured for the CTRC server is incorrect.
Recommended Action Contact your SNA network administrator to determine the correct name of the
remote LU for DB2 on the remote database server. Ensure that both the SNA network name and the
LU name are correct.
Error Message
%TXCONN-5-CONNIDLETIMEOUT
: Client [IP_address] connected to server [chars] has
timed out after [time-stamp].
Explanation The client was idle for too long, and the idle timeout configured for the CTRC server
has expired.
