The policy '[chars]' attempted to set a
next-hop on [chars] with an unsuitable address type. The next-hop will not be
modified.
Explanation The specified route-policy (or a policy applied by that policy) is configured - perhaps
on a neighbor or for redistribution - and it is attempting to set the next-hop of the specified route to
an address that doesn't match the address-family of the route. For example, it might be setting an
IPv6 next-hop on an IPv4 route. Since this does not make any sense, the attempt will be ignored,
and the next-hop will not be changed. (Note that this message is rate-limited, so it will not appear
for every single route that is affected). Use the command 'show rpl policy name attachpoints' to
determine where this policy is in use. Use the command 'show rpl policy name uses policies' to
determine which other policies this policy applies (since the relevant 'set next-hop' may be in one
of these policies).

%ROUTING-BGP-5-LOWMEM_RESET
neighbor [chars] reset due to SEVERE low memory
condition - use 'clear bgp [chars]' to re-enable
Explanation A SEVERE low memory condition has been encountered on the node where the BGP
process is running, and so to free some memory, BGP has reset a neighbor. BGP will continue to
reset neighbors periodically until the low memory condition abates. The neighbors which are reset
will be shut down until a 'clear bgp' command is used to bring them back up. They will not come
up automatically when the low memory condition abates - this is to prevent the node oscillating
between memory states.
Recommended Action Free some memory on the system or correct the condition causing the low
memory problem, and then use the 'clear bgp address' command to re-enable the neighbors that have
been shut down. The 'show bgp all all summary' command can be used to easily see which
neighbors are affected.
Error Message
%ROUTING-BGP-5-LOWMEM_SHUTDOWN
BGP is shutting down due to [chars] low memory
condition - use 'process restart bgp location node' to restart
Explanation BGP received a notification that CRITICAL low memory state has been entered, or that
SEVERE low memory state has been entered while BGP is in READ-ONLY mode, and
consequently it has shut itself down in order to free memory.
Recommended Action Check the memory on the node, and take steps to free memory or to correct the
condition which caused the low memory state. Then restart the process using the 'process restart bgp
location node' command.
Error Message

%ROUTING-FIB-4-RSRC_LOW
CEF running low on [chars] resource memory. CEF will now
begin resource constrained forwarding. Only route deletes will be handled in this
state, which may result in mismatch between RIB/CEF. Traffic loss on certain
prefixes can be expected. The CEF will automatically resume normal operation, once
the resource utilization returns to normal level
Explanation The fib_mgr process has detected that average utilization for specified resource has
risen above a predefined high watermark value, and has entered resource constrained forwarding
mode. In this mode, the cef will only handle route deletes which may potentially free up some
memory. Due to this operational mode, the CEF/RIB will be out of sync. Once routes are deleted
and resource utilization level drops to acceptable levels again, cef will come out of this operational
mode and resume normal operation.
Recommended Action Run show cef resource command and check which resource(s) are running low
on memory. Any action that reduces number of routes for this protocol (results in route delete events
to free up resources below predefined level) will eventually result in the cef returning to normal
operation after few seconds.

[chars] has more [chars] interface
addresses than can fit into a single TLV (255 bytes). Outgoing IIHs can only
include the first [unsigned int] addresses.
Explanation The specified interface has more addresses than can be fitted into a single TLV (255
bytes). RFC 1195 specifies that each IIH may contain at most one IPv4 Interface Address TLV, i.e.
63 IPv4 addresses. Thus if there are more than 63 IPv4 addresses configured on the interface, then
only 63 addresses are included in the IIH. If the interface has a primary address, it is always included
first. The secondary addresses are added in their natural numerical order until there is no more space.
If there is an IS on the LAN which does not share a subnet with any of the advertised addresses, then
it will not be able to form an adjacency with this IS. This problem should not apply to IPv6 as each

log, call your Cisco technical support representative and provide the representative with the
gathered information.
Error Message
%ROUTING-ISIS-4-LINK_TO_SELF
Level [unsigned int] LSP [chars] contains a link
advertisement to itself ([chars] MT ID). This link will be ignored in subsequent
route calculations.
Explanation The specified LSP contains a link advertisement to itself and this link has been ignored.
There is no possible impact to routing as the link would not be used by other routers in their
calculations. This message is however indicative of a problem in the router which issued the LSP as
it should not have advertised such a link.
Recommended Action Identify the source of the offending packet and correct it.
Error Message
%ROUTING-ISIS-4-LSPCKSUM
Bad L[dec] LSP [chars] checksum [hex] received on
[chars], length [dec], should be [hex], bad count [dec]
Explanation Bad L-# LSP LSP-ID checksum ACTUAL-CKSUM received on INTERFACE-NAME,
length PDU-LENGTH should be EXPECTED-CKSUM, bad count CKSUM-ERROR-COUNT. This
system received a level L-# LSP with a wrong checksum. If the IS-IS configuration option
'isis-ignore-cksum-errors' is set, the packet has been ignored. Otherwise it has been handled
according to the specification.
Recommended Action No action is required.
Error Message
%ROUTING-ISIS-4-LSPFULL
L[unsigned int] LSP filled to capacity, dropping routes
Explanation L-LEVEL LSP filled to capacity and is dropping routes. This system cannot originate
any more routes or adjacencies because it cannot build any more LSP fragments in which to
advertise them.
Recommended Action This is usually caused by a misconfiguration, such as redistributing a large
number of routes into IS-IS. Reduce the number of routes being redistributed into IS-IS to correct
the problem.
Error Message
%ROUTING-ISIS-4-LSPTOOBIG
L[dec] LSP [chars] size [dec] bigger than interface
[chars] MTU [dec], LSP dropped
Explanation L-LEVEL LSP LSP-ID size LSP-LENGTH is bigger than interface
INTERFACE-NAME MTU INTERFACE-MTR. LSP dropped. This system was unable to flood an
LSP out INTERFACE-NAME because the interface MTU was too small. The LSP has not been
transmitted on the interface.
Recommended Action Configure the routing area and the interfaces with a consistent MTU.
Error Message
%ROUTING-ISIS-4-MARTIAN
Level [unsigned int] LSP [chars] contains an [chars]
prefix advertisement to the invalid prefix [chars]. This prefix will be ignored
in subsequent route calculations.
Explanation The specified LSP contains a prefix advertisement to an invalid martian prefix and the
prefix has been ignored. As the prefix is invalid there should be no impact to routing as no traffic
should be destined to the prefix. This message is however indicative of a problem in the router which
issued the LSP as it should not have advertised such a prefix.
Recommended Action Identify the source of the offending packet and correct it.
Error Message
%ROUTING-ISIS-4-MAX_REDIST_PREFIXES
Topology [chars] level [unsigned int] is
[chars]exceeding the maximum number of redistributed prefixes
Explanation This configuration is redistributing more than the allowable number of prefixes into an
IS-IS topology. IS-IS will not advertise some of these routes. This is to prevent inadvertent
redistribution of the Internet via IS-IS.
Recommended Action Consider reconfiguring route redistribution into the IS-IS process. Reduce
other system activity to ease memory demands. If conditions warrant, upgrade to a larger memory
configuration.
Error Message
%ROUTING-ISIS-4-MEM_ALLOC_FAIL
Failed to allocate [unsigned int] bytes for
'[chars]'
Explanation The process failed to allocate memory for the specified resource. This could be because
the IS-IS topology is too large for the memory installed in the router.
Recommended Action Reduce other system activity to ease memory demands. If conditions warrant,
upgrade to a larger memory configuration.
Error Message
%ROUTING-ISIS-4-MGD_TIMER_FAIL
Error [chars] the [chars] [chars] timer: [chars]
Explanation IS-IS encountered an unexpected error using the Managed Timer library. This is most
likely to be due to a low memory condition but may also be an internal programming error. The error
message should provide more information about the cause.
Recommended Action Reduce other system activity to ease memory demands. If conditions warrant,
upgrade to a larger memory configuration. Consider restarting the IS-IS process.
Error Message
%ROUTING-ISIS-4-NSF_CHKPT_ACCESS_FAIL
Failed to [chars] checkpoint record(s)
[chars] [chars] table: [hex], '[chars]'
Explanation An unexpected error occurred while IS-IS was accessing entries in the specified
checkpoint table. If this error occurs during an NSF Cisco restart then that NSF restart may be
aborted in favour of a traditional restart. If this error occurs during normal operation then the
relevant checkpoint table may not be correct, and a subsequent NSF restart may not succeed. If
however the error does not recur then the checkpoint tables should synchronize. The error may be
caused by a low memory condition or through programming error.
Recommended Action Reduce other system activity to ease memory demands. If conditions warrant,
upgrade to a larger memory configuration.
Error Message
%ROUTING-ISIS-4-NSF_CHKPT_INIT
NSF checkpoint init failure, [hex], '[chars]'
Explanation The IS-IS process failed to initialize the checkpoint service for the specified error
reason.

log, call your Cisco technical support representative and provide the representative with the
gathered information.
Error Message
%ROUTING-ISIS-4-NSF_CHKPT_TABLE_FAIL
Failed to [chars] [chars] checkpoint table:
[hex], '[chars]'
Explanation An unexpected error occurred while IS-IS was accessing the specified checkpoint table.
If this error occurs during an NSF Cisco restart then that NSF restart may be aborted in favour of a
traditional restart. If this error occurs during normal operation then the relevant checkpoint table
may not be correct, and a subsequent NSF restart may not succeed. The error may be caused by a
low memory condition or through programming error.
Recommended Action Reduce other system activity to ease memory demands. If conditions warrant,
upgrade to a larger memory configuration.
Error Message
%ROUTING-ISIS-4-NSF_CREATE_FAIL
Failed to create L[unsigned int] NSF adjacency
to [chars] ([chars]) ([chars])
Explanation An error occurred when creating an NSF adjacency.
Recommended Action Copy the error message exactly as it appears on the console or in the system
log, call your Cisco technical support representative and provide the representative with the
gathered information.
Error Message
%ROUTING-ISIS-4-NSF_TE_TUNNEL_RESTORE_FAIL
Failed to restore L[unsigned int] TE
tunnel ([hex]) to [chars] ([chars]) ([hex], [chars])
Explanation An unexpected error occurred while recreating TE tunnel from the checkpointed
information. NSF may abort.
Recommended Action Restart the ISIS process. Copy the error message exactly as it appears on the
console or in the system log, call your Cisco technical support representative and provide the
representative with the gathered information.
Error Message

interface [chars] will not be used
Explanation Any level specific configuration on a P2P interface is ignored. The configuration may
be accepted but not used if the interface type is unknown or changed later to point-to-point.
Recommended Action Configure the same parameter without using any level extension.
Error Message
%ROUTING-ISIS-4-REDIST_FAIL
Error [chars] for redistribution of routes from
[chars] [chars] into IS-IS
Explanation The RIB returned an unexpected error when IS-IS attempted to (de)register for the
redistribution of routes in the specified topology and owned by the specified protocol. If this is a
registration error then routes from the specified protocol may not be advertised in IS-IS's system
LSPs. If this is a deregistration error then IS-IS may receive unnecessary redistribution updates from
the RIB but the system LSPs will be correctly generated. The problem may be caused by a low
memory condition but is most likely to be an internal programming error.
Recommended Action Reduce other system activity to ease memory demands. If conditions warrant,
upgrade to a larger memory configuration. Consider restarting the IS-IS and/or the RIB processes.
Error Message
%ROUTING-ISIS-4-RSI_C_REGISTRATION_FAIL
Attempt to register for a VRF failed:
[chars] ([hex])
Explanation IS-IS failed to register for notification of changes to a VRF.
Recommended Action This failure may be due to lack of resources. Reduce other system activity to
ease memory demands. If conditions warrant, upgrade to a larger memory configuration.
Error Message
%ROUTING-ISIS-4-SAMESYSID_DIFFHOST
Received self originated LSP with system ID
[chars], on interface [chars], differs in hostname; Local hostname [chars],
Received hostname [chars]. Please check if this host was connected inadvertently
to the network or if the local hostname has been changed.
Explanation An LSP is received with a System ID same as the local System ID but with a different
hostname. This could be happen in the following cases:
1.
A new router is introduced into the network with a duplicate system ID as the local router.
2.
The local hostname has changed, and ISIS is receiving an old LSP generated with the old hostname.
Recommended Action If case 1, check the configuration of other routers in the area for duplicate
system IDs. If case 2, ignore the message.
Error Message
%ROUTING-ISIS-4-SEQNUM_WRAP
Sequence number wrapped in LSP [chars].
Explanation An LSP originated by this system has had its sequence number wrap around to 0. The
IS-IS specification states that this system should shutdown for 20 minutes waiting for the LSP to
age out before resuming routing.
Recommended Action This condition can only occur if a network has been operational for several
years, or if a network has been misconfigured for a long time. Disable the IS-IS routing process for
max-lsp-lifetime and then restart it to clear the problem. Alternative approaches include changing
the SYSTEM-ID or, if this occurred with a pseudo-node LSP, lowering the priority of the interface.
Error Message
%ROUTING-ISIS-4-SETSOCKOPT_FAIL
Error setting the value of the '[chars]' IS-IS
network socket option to '[chars]' (length [unsigned int]): [chars]
Explanation IS-IS encountered an error while configuring the socket it uses for network I/O. As a
result the socket is unusable and IS-IS cannot perform I/O. IS-IS will attempt to recover by closing
the current socket and schedule an attempt to reconnect.
Recommended Action If the message recurs, copy the error message exactly as it appears on the
console or in the system log, call your Cisco technical support representative and provide the
representative with the gathered information. Consider restarting the IS-IS process.
Error Message
%ROUTING-ISIS-4-SHOW_NOMEM

log, call your Cisco technical support representative and provide the representative with the
gathered information.
Error Message
%ROUTING-ISIS-4-SHUTDOWN
Process is shutting down ([chars]): [chars]
Explanation IS-IS has encountered a problem which means that is no longer able to continue and so
it is shutting down. The message includes a brief description of the problem but will also have been
preceded by another message providing a more detailed description of the problem. There are
several types of reason why IS-IS may have to shutdown which include a fatal error during process
initialization, a fatal problem with a critical service during normal operation, and a roll-over of one
of the local system's LSP's sequence numbers. The message also describes whether or not IS-IS has
automatically been restarted.
Recommended Action Follow the instructions associated with the preceding message. If an automatic
restart has been scheduled, then IS-IS may recover automatically. If a manual restart is required,
then 'process start isis' is required to recover.
Error Message
%ROUTING-ISIS-4-SNPTOOBIG
L[dec] SNP size [dec] too big for interface [chars] MTU
[dec], trimmed to interface MTU
Explanation L-LEVEL SNP size SNP-LENGTH is bigger than interface INTERFACE-NAME MTU
INTERFACE-MTR, trimmed to interface MTU. This system was unable to flood an SNP out
INTERFACE-NAME because the LSP MTU setting is too big for the interface MTU. The SNP
packet size was trimmed to fit the interface MTU.
Recommended Action Configure the LSP MTU to a size that will fit within the interface MTU.
Error Message
%ROUTING-ISIS-4-THREAD_SPURIOUS_PULSE
Received a spurious pulse in thread
[chars] (pulse value: [hex])
Explanation IS-IS received a spurious (unexpected) pulse value and will ignore it.
Recommended Action No action is required.

In the topology [chars] [chars] has a wide
metric of [unsigned int] but level L[unsigned int] is configured to generate narrow
metrics. Maximum narrow value [unsigned int] is used instead
Explanation The specified interface and topology has been configured with a metric value that
requires metric-style wide to be configured for the relevant level.
Recommended Action Configure metric-style wide for the topology and area.
Error Message
%ROUTING-ISIS-4-ZERO_COST_LINK
Level [unsigned int] LSP [chars] contains an
invalid link advertisement to [chars] ([chars] MT ID) with a metric of 0. This
link will be ignored in subsequent route calculations.
Explanation The specified LSP contains a link advertisement with an invalid metric of 0. Zero cost
links have the potential to break the SPF algorithm and are not permitted by the IS-IS specification
(ISO 10589 version 2) and so the IOS-XR router will ignore the link in any subsequent route
calculations. As a result traffic which should be routed via the affected routers may be dropped or
enter a routing loop.
Recommended Action Identify the source of the offending packet and correct it.
Error Message

Duplicate System ID [chars] already used by [chars]
detected in IIH received on [chars]
Explanation IS-IS has received an IIH from a router claiming to have the same System ID as either
the local system or another station on a LAN interface. The message indicates the interface and, in
the case of a LAN interface, the SNPA from which the IIH was received. It also indicates whether
you use this system ID, or the SNPA of the other station using the system ID.
Recommended Action Duplicate system IDs are usually the result of misconfiguration or a bridging
loop in the network. Configure each router with a unique system ID, and ensure that there are no
bridging loops in the network.
Error Message
%ROUTING-ISIS-6-EVENT_CONN_DESTROY_FAIL
Error destroying '[chars]' connection:

Recommended Action Reduce other system activity to ease memory demands. If conditions warrant,
upgrade to a larger memory configuration.
Error Message
%ROUTING-ISIS-6-IIH_IF_ADDRESS
IIH received from [chars] contains [chars]
[chars] interface address: [chars]
Explanation IS-IS received an IIH from the specified source containing an invalid and potentially
unusable interface address for the specified address family. The message contains details of why the
interface address is invalid. The message implies that the router sending the bad IIH is either
misconfigured or is not conforming to the IS-IS specification. If the message describes the address
as unusable, then IS-IS is not able to use the adjacency as a next hop for the specified address family.
Otherwise IS-IS will still attempt to use the adjacency as a next hop.
Recommended Action Using the contents of the error message as a guide, check the configuration of
the router sourcing the IIH or contact the router's vendor.
Error Message
