Messages 101001 to 199012

This section contains messages from 101001 to 199012.

101001

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-1-101001: (Primary) Failover cable OK.

Explanation    This is a failover message. This message reports that the failover cable is present and functioning correctly. (Primary) can also be listed as (Secondary) for the secondary unit.

Recommended Action    None required.

101002

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-1-101002: (Primary) Bad failover cable. 

Explanation    This is a failover message. This message reports that the failover cable is present but not functioning correctly. (Primary) can also be listed as (Secondary) for the secondary unit.

Recommended Action    Replace the failover cable.

101003, 101004

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-1-101003: (Primary) Failover cable not connected (this unit).
Error Message    %PIX|ASA-1-101004: (Primary) Failover cable not connected (other 
unit).

Explanation    Both instances are failover messages. These messages are logged when failover mode is enabled, but the failover cable is not connected to one unit of the failover pair. (Primary) can also be listed as (Secondary) for the secondary unit.

Recommended Action    Connect the failover cable to both units of the failover pair.

101005

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-1-101005: (Primary) Error reading failover cable status.

Explanation    This is a failover message. This message is displayed if the failover cable is connected, but the primary unit is unable to determine its status.

Recommended Action    Replace the cable.

102001

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-1-102001: (Primary) Power failure/System reload other side.

Explanation    This is a failover message. This message is logged if the primary unit detects a system reload or a power failure on the other unit. "Primary" can also be listed as "Secondary" for the secondary unit.

Recommended Action    On the unit that experienced the reload, issue the show crashinfo command to determine if there is a traceback associated with the reload. Also verify that the unit is powered on and that power cables are properly connected.

103001

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-1-103001: (Primary) No response from other firewall (reason 
code = code).

Explanation    This is a failover message. This message is displayed if the primary unit is unable to communicate with the secondary unit over the failover cable. (Primary) can also be listed as (Secondary). for the secondary unit. Table 1-2 lists the reason codes and the descriptions to determine why the failover occurred.

Table 1-2 Reason Codes

Reason Code
Description

1

The local unit is not receiving the hello packet on the failover LAN interface when LAN failover occurs or on the serial failover cable when serial failover occurs, and declares that the peer is down.

2

An interface did not pass one of the 4 failover tests. The four tests are as follows: 1) Link Up, 2) Monitor for Network Traffic, 3) ARP test, 4) Broadcast Ping test.

3

No proper ACK for 15+ seconds after a command was sent on the serial cable.

4

The failover LAN interface is down, and other data interfaces are not responding to additional interface testing. In addition, the local unit is declaring that the peer is down.

5

The standby peer went down during the configuration synchronization process.


Recommended Action    Verify that the failover cable is connected properly and both units have the same hardware, software, and configuration. If the problem persists, contact the Cisco TAC.

103002

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-1-103002: (Primary) Other firewall network interface 
interface_number OK.

Explanation    This is a failover message. This message is displayed when the primary unit detects that the network interface on the secondary unit is okay. (Primary) can also be listed as (Secondary) for the secondary unit.

Recommended Action    None required.

103003

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-1-103003: (Primary) Other firewall network interface 
interface_number failed.

Explanation    This is a failover message. This message is displayed if the primary unit detects a bad network interface on the secondary unit. (Primary) can also be listed as (Secondary) for the secondary unit.

Recommended Action    Check the network connections on the secondary unit and check the network hub connection. If necessary, replace the failed network interface.

103004

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-1-103004: (Primary) Other firewall reports this firewall

Recommended Action    Ensure that the cable is properly connected.

105020

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-1-105020: (Primary) Incomplete/slow config replication

Explanation    When a failover occurs, the active security appliance detects a partial configuration in memory. Normally, this is caused by an interruption in the replication service. (Primary) can also be listed as (Secondary) for the secondary unit.

Recommended Action    Once the failover is detected by the security appliance, the security appliance automatically reloads itself and loads configuration from Flash memory and/or resynchronizes with another security appliance. If failovers happen continuously, check the failover configuration and make sure both security appliance units can communicate with each other.

105021

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-1-105021: (failover_unit) Standby unit failed to sync due to 
a locked context_name config. Lock held by lock_owner_name

Explanation    During configuration synchronizing, a standby unit will reload itself if some other process locks the configuration for more than 5 minutes, which prevents the failover process from applying the new configuration. This can occur when an administrator pages through a running configuration on the standby unit while configuration synchronization is in process. See also the show running-config EXEC command and the pager lines num CONFIG command.

Recommended Action    Avoid viewing or modifying configuration on standby unit when it first comes up and is in the process of establishing a failover connection with the active unit.

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-1-105037: The primary and standby units are switching back 
and forth as the active unit.

Explanation    The primary and standby units are switching back and forth as the active unit, indicating a LAN failover connectivity problem or software bug.

Recommended Action    Check that the LAN interface cable is connected.

105038

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-1-105038: (Primary) Interface count mismatch

Explanation    When a failover occurs, the active security appliance detects a partial configuration in memory. Normally, this is caused by an interruption in the replication service. (Primary) can also be listed as (Secondary) for the secondary unit.

Recommended Action    Once the failover is detected by the security appliance, the security appliance automatically reloads itself and loads the configuration from Flash memory and/or resyncs with another security appliance. If failovers happen continuously, check the failover configuration and make sure that both security appliance units can communicate with each other.

105039

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-1-105039: (Primary) Unable to verify the Interface count with 
mate. Failover may be disabled in mate. 

Explanation    Failover initially verifies that the number of interfaces configured on the primary and secondary security appliances are the same. This message indicates that the primary security appliance is not able to verify the number of interfaces configured on the secondary security appliance. This message indicates that the primary security appliance is not able communicate with the secondary security appliance over the failover interface. (Primary) can also be listed as (Secondary) for the secondary security appliance.

Recommended Action    Verify the failover LAN, interface configuration, and status on the primary and secondary security appliances. Make sure that the secondary security appliance is running the security appliance application and that failover is enabled.

105040

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-1-105040: (Primary) Mate failover version is not compatible.

Explanation    The primary and secondary security appliance should run the same failover software version to act as a failover pair. This message indicates that the secondary security appliance failover software version is not compatible with the primary security appliance. Failover is disabled on the primary security appliance. (Primary) can also be listed as (Secondary) for the secondary security appliance.

Recommended Action    Maintain consistent software versions between the primary and secondary security appliances to enable failover.

105042

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-1-105042: (Primary) Failover interface OK 

Explanation    LAN failover interface link is up.

Explanation    The interface used to send failover messages to the secondary security appliance is functioning. (Primary) can also be listed as (Secondary) for the secondary security appliance.

Recommended Action    None required.

105043

Explanation    LAN failover interface link is down.

Recommended Action    Check the connectivity of the LAN failover interface. Make sure that the speed/duplex setting is correct.

105044

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-1-105044: (Primary) Mate operational mode mode is not 
compatible with my mode mode.

Explanation    When the operational mode (single or multi) does not match between failover peers, failover will be disabled.

Recommended Action    Configure the failover peers to have the same operational mode, and then reenable failover.

105045

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-1-105045: (Primary) Mate license (number contexts) is not 
compatible with my license (number contexts).

Explanation    When the feature licenses do not match between failover peers, failover will be disabled.

Recommended Action    Configure the failover peers to have the same feature license, and then reenable failover.

105046

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-1-105046 (Primary|Secondary) Mate has a different chassis 

Explanation    This message is issued when two failover units have a different type of chassis. For example, one is a PIX, the other is an ASA-5520, or one has a 3-slot chassis, the other has a 6-slot chassis.

Recommended Action    Make sure that the two failover units are the same.

105047

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-1-105047: Mate has a io_card_name1 card in slot slot_number 
which is different from my io_card_name2

Explanation    The two failover units have different types of cards in their respective slots.

Recommended Action    Make sure that the card configurations for the failover units are the same.

105048

Error Message    %ASA-1-105048: (unit) Mate's service module (application) is different 
from mine (application)

Explanation    The failover process detected that different applications are running on the service modules in the active and standby units. The two failover units are incompatible if different service modules are used.

unit—Primary or secondary.

application—The name of the application, such as InterScan Security Card.

Recommended Action    Make sure that both units have identical service modules before trying to re-enable failover.

106001

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-2-106001: Inbound TCP connection denied from IP_address/port 
to IP_address/port flags tcp_flags on interface interface_name

Explanation    This is a connection-related message. This message occurs when an attempt to connect to an inside address is denied by the security policy that is defined for the specified traffic type. Possible tcp_flags values correspond to the flags in the TCP header that were present when the connection was denied. For example, a TCP packet arrived for which no connection state exists in the security appliance, and it was dropped. The tcp_flags in this packet are FIN and ACK.

The tcp_flags are as follows:

ACK—The acknowledgment number was received.

FIN—Data was sent.

PSH—The receiver passed data to the application.

RST—The connection was reset.

SYN—Sequence numbers were synchronized to start a connection.

URG—The urgent pointer was declared valid.

Recommended Action    None required.

106002

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-2-106002: protocol Connection denied by outbound list acl_ID 
src inside_address dest outside_address

Explanation    This is a connection-related message. This message is displayed if the specified connection fails because of an outbound deny command. The protocol variable can be ICMP, TCP, or UDP.

Recommended Action    Use the show outbound command to check outbound lists.

106006

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-2-106006: Deny inbound UDP from outside_address/outside_port 
to inside_address/inside_port on interface interface_name.

Explanation    This is a connection-related message. This message is displayed if an inbound UDP packet is denied by the security policy that is defined for the specified traffic type.

Recommended Action    None required.

106007

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-2-106007: Deny inbound UDP from outside_address/outside_port 
to inside_address/inside_port due to DNS {Response|Query}.

Explanation    This is a connection-related message. This message is displayed if a UDP packet containing a DNS query or response is denied.

Recommended Action    If the inside port number is 53, the inside host probably is set up as a caching name server. Add an access-list command statement to permit traffic on UDP port 53 and a translation entry for the inside host. If the outside port number is 53, a DNS server was probably too slow to respond, and the query was answered by another server.

106010

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-3-106010: Deny inbound protocol src 
interface_name:dest_address/dest_port dst 
interface_name:source_address/source_port

Explanation    This is a connection-related message. This message is displayed if an inbound connection is denied by your security policy.

Recommended Action    Modify the security policy if traffic should be permitted. If the message occurs at regular intervals, contact the remote peer administrator.

106011

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-3-106011: Deny inbound (No xlate) string

Explanation    The message will appear under normal traffic conditions if there are internal users that are accessing the Internet through a web browser. Any time a connection is reset, when the host at the end of the connection sends a packet after the security appliance receives the reset, this message will appear. It can typically be ignored.

Recommended Action    Prevent this syslog message from getting logged to the syslog server by entering the no logging message 106011 command.

106012

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-6-106012: Deny IP from IP_address to IP_address, IP options hex.

Explanation    This is a packet integrity check message. An IP packet was seen with IP options. Because IP options are considered a security risk, the packet was discarded.

Recommended Action    Contact the remote host system administrator to determine the problem. Check the local site for loose source routing or strict source routing.

106013

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-2-106013: Dropping echo request from IP_address to PAT address 
IP_address

Explanation    The security appliance discarded an inbound ICMP Echo Request packet with a destination address that corresponds to a PAT global address. The inbound packet is discarded because it cannot specify which PAT host should receive the packet.

Recommended Action    None required.

106014

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-3-106014: Deny inbound icmp src interface_name: IP_address dst 
interface_name: IP_address (type dec, code dec) 

Explanation    The security appliance denied any inbound ICMP packet access. By default, all ICMP packets are denied access unless specifically permitted.

Recommended Action    None required.

106015

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-6-106015: Deny TCP (no connection) from IP_address/port to 
IP_address/port flags tcp_flags on interface interface_name.

Explanation    The security appliance discarded a TCP packet that has no associated connection in the security appliance connection table. The security appliance looks for a SYN flag in the packet, which indicates a request to establish a new connection. If the SYN flag is not set, and there is not an existing connection, the security appliance discards the packet.

Recommended Action    None required unless the security appliance receives a large volume of these invalid TCP packets. If this is the case, trace the packets to the source and determine the reason these packets were sent.

106016

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-2-106016: Deny IP spoof from (IP_address) to IP_address on 
interface interface_name.

Explanation    This message is generated when a packet arrives at the security appliance interface that has a destination IP address of 0.0.0.0 and a destination MAC address of the security appliance interface. In addition, this message is generated when the security appliance discarded a packet with an invalid source address, which may include one of the following or some other invalid address:

Loopback network (127.0.0.0)

Broadcast  (limited, net-directed, subnet-directed, and all-subnets-directed)

The destination host (land.c)

To further enhance spoof packet detection, use the icmp command to configure the security appliance to discard packets with source addresses belonging to the internal network, because the access-list command has been deprecated and is no longer guaranteed to work correctly.

Recommended Action    Determine if an external user is trying to compromise the protected network. Check for misconfigured clients.

106017

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-2-106017: Deny IP due to Land Attack from IP_address to 
IP_address

Explanation    The security appliance received a packet with the IP source address equal to the IP destination, and the destination port equal to the source port. This message indicates a spoofed packet that is designed to attack systems. This attack is referred to as a Land Attack.

Recommended Action    If this message persists, an attack may be in progress. The packet does not provide enough information to determine where the attack originates.

106018

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-2-106018: ICMP packet type ICMP_type denied by outbound list 
acl_ID src inside_address dest outside_address

Explanation    The outgoing ICMP packet with the specified ICMP from local host (inside_address) to the foreign host (outside_address) was denied by the outbound ACL list.

Recommended Action    None required.

106020

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-2-106020: Deny IP teardrop fragment (size = number, offset = 
number) from IP_address to IP_address

Explanation    The security appliance discarded an IP packet with a teardrop signature containing either a small offset or fragment overlapping. This is a hostile event that circumvents the security appliance or an Intrusion Detection System.

Recommended Action    Contact the remote peer administrator or escalate this issue according to your security policy.

106021

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-1-106021: Deny protocol reverse path check from 
source_address to dest_address on interface interface_name

Explanation    An attack is in progress. Someone is attempting to spoof an IP address on an inbound connection. Unicast RPF, also known as reverse route lookup, detected a packet that does not have a source address represented by a route and assumes that it is part of an attack on your security appliance.

This message appears when you have enabled Unicast RPF with the ip verify reverse-path command. This feature works on packets input to an interface; if it is configured on the outside, then the security appliance checks packets arriving from the outside.

The security appliance looks up a route based on the source_address. If an entry is not found and a route is not defined, then this syslog message appears and the connection is dropped.

If there is a route, the security appliance checks which interface it corresponds to. If the packet arrived on another interface, it is either a spoof or there is an asymmetric routing environment that has more than one path to a destination. The security appliance does not support asymmetric routing.

If the security appliance is configured on an internal interface, it checks static route command statements or RIP, and if the source_address is not found, then an internal user is spoofing their address.

Recommended Action    Even though an attack is in progress, if this feature is enabled, no user action is required. The security appliance repels the attack.

106022

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-1-106022: Deny protocol connection spoof from source_address 
to dest_address on interface interface_name

Explanation    A packet matching a connection arrives on a different interface from the interface that the connection began on.

For example, if a user starts a connection on the inside interface, but the security appliance detects the same connection arriving on a perimeter interface, the security appliance has more than one path to a destination. This is known as asymmetric routing and is not supported on the security appliance.

An attacker also might be attempting to append packets from one connection to another as a way to break into the security appliance. In either case, the security appliance displays this message and drops the connection.

Recommended Action    This message appears when the ip verify reverse-path command is not configured. Check that the routing is not asymmetric.

106023

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-4-106023: Deny protocol src 
[interface_name:source_address/source_port] dst 
interface_name:dest_address/dest_port [type {string}, code {code}] by 
access_group acl_ID

Explanation    A real IP packet was denied by the ACL. This message displays even if you do not have the log option enabled for an ACL.

Recommended Action    If messages persist from the same source address, messages might indicate a foot-printing or port-scanning attempt. Contact the remote host administrators.

106024

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-2-106024: Access rules memory exhausted

Explanation    The access list compilation process has run out of memory. All configuration information that has been added since the last successful access list was removed from the system, and the most recently compiled set of access lists will continue to be used.

Recommended Action    Access lists, AAA, ICMP, SSH, Telnet, and other rule types are stored and compiled as access list rule types. Remove some of these rule types so that others can be added.

106025, 106026

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-6-106025: Failed to determine the security context for the 
packet:sourceVlan:source_address dest_address source_port dest_port protocol
Error Message    %PIX|ASA-6-106026: Failed to determine the security context for the 
packet:sourceVlan:source_address dest_address source_port dest_port protocol

Explanation    The security context of the packet in multiple context mode cannot be determined. Both messages can be generated for IP packets being dropped in either router and transparent mode.

Recommended Action    None required.

106027

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-4-106027:Failed to determine the security context for the 
packet:vlansource Vlan#:ethertype src sourceMAC dst destMAC 

Explanation    The security context of the packet in multiple context mode cannot be determined. This message is generated for non-IP packets being dropped in transparent mode only.

Recommended Action    None required.

106100

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-6-106100: access-list acl_ID {permitted | denied | 
est-allowed} protocol interface_name/source_address(source_port) -> 
interface_name/dest_address(dest_port) hit-cnt number ({first hit | 
number-second interval}) hash codes

Explanation    This message is generated any time that a packet is seen that does not match an existing connection on the security appliance. The message indicates either the initial occurrence or the total number of occurrences during an interval. This message provides more information than message 106023, which only logs denied packets, and does not include the hit count or a configurable level.

When an access-list line has the log argument, it is expected that this syslog ID might be triggered because of a non-synchronized packet reaching the security appliance and being evaluated by the access-list. For example, if an ACK packet is received on the security appliance (for which no TCP connection exists in the connection table), the device might generate syslog 106100, indicating that the packet was permitted; however, the packet is later correctly dropped because of no matching connection.

The following list describes the message values:

Explanation    permitted | denied | est-allowed —These values specify if the packet was permitted or denied by the ACL. If the value is est-allowed, the packet was denied by the ACL but was allowed for an already established session (for example, an internal user is allowed to accesss the Internet, and responding packets that would normally be denied by the ACL are accepted).

protocol—TCP, UDP, ICMP, or an IP protocol number.

interface_name—The interface name for the source or destination of the logged flow. The VLAN interfaces are supported.

source_address—The source IP address of the logged flow.

dest_address—The destination IP address of the logged flow.

source_port—The source port of the logged flow (TCP or UDP). For ICMP, this field is 0.

dest_port—The destination port of the logged flow (TCP or UDP). For ICMP, this field is src_addr.

hit-cnt number—The number of times this flow was permitted or denied by this ACL entry in the configured time interval. The value is 1 when the security appliance generates the first syslog message for this flow.

first hit—The first message generated for this flow.

number-second interval—The interval in which the hit count is accumulated. Set this interval using the access-list command with the interval option.

hash codes—Two are always printed for the object group ACE and the constituent regular ACE. Values are determined on which ACE that the packet hit. To display these hash codes, enter the show-access list command.

Recommended Action    None required.

106101

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-1-106101 The number of ACL log deny-flows has reached limit 
(number).

Explanation    If you configured the log option for an ACL deny statement (access-list id deny command), and a traffic flow matches the ACL statement, the security appliance caches the flow information. This message indicates that the number of matching flows that are cached on the security appliance exceeds the user-configured limit (using the access-list deny-flow-max command).

The number value is the limit configured using the access-list deny-flow-max command.

Recommended Action    None required. This message might be generated as a result of a DoS attack.

106102

Error Message    %ASA-6-106102: access-list acl_ID {permitted|denied} protocol 
interface_name/source_address source_port interface_name/dest_address dest_port 
hit-cnt number {first hit|number-second interval}

Explanation    This message indicates that a packet was either permitted or denied by an access list that is applied through a VPN filter.

Recommended Action    None required.

107001

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-1-107001: RIP auth failed from IP_address: version=number, 
type=string, mode=string, sequence=number on interface interface_name

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-4-109027: [aaa protocol] Unable to decipher response message 
Server = server_IP_address, User = user

Explanation    The response from the AAA server could not be validated. The configured server key is probably incorrect. This message may be displayed during transactions with RADIUS or TACACS+ servers. The server_IP_address is the IP address of the relevant AAA server. The user is the user name associated with the connection.

Recommended Action    Verify that the server key, configured using the aaa-server command, is correct.

109028

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-4-109028: aaa bypassed for same-security traffic from 
ingress_ interface:source_address/source_port to 
egress_interface:dest_address/dest_port

Explanation    AAA is being bypassed for same security traffic that matches a configured AAA rule. This can only occur when traffic passes between two interfaces that have the same configured security level, when the same security traffic is permitted, and if the AAA configuration uses the include or exclude syntax.

Recommended Action    None required.

109029

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-5-109029: Parsing downloaded ACL: string

Explanation    A syntax error was encountered while parsing an access list that was downloaded from a RADIUS server during user authentication.

string—An error message detailing the syntax error that prevented the access list from parsing correctly.

Recommended Action    Use the information presented in this message to identify and correct the syntax error in the access list definition within the RADIUS server configuration.

109030

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-4-109030: Autodetect ACL convert wildcard did not convert ACL 
access_list source | dest netmask netmask.

Explanation    This message is displayed when a dynamic ACL that is configured on a RADIUS server is not converted by the mechanism for automatically detecting wildcard netmasks. The problem occurs because this mechanism could not determine if the netmask is a wildcard or a normal netmask.

access_list—The access list that could not be converted

source—The source IP address.

dest—The destination IP address.

netmask—The subnet mask for the destination or source address in dotted-decimal notation.

Recommended Action    Check the access list netmask on the RADIUS server for wildcard configuration. If it is meant to be a wildcard, and if all access list netmasks on that server are wildcard then use the wildcard setting for acl-netmask-convert for the AAA server. Otherwise, change the netmask to a normal netmask or to a wildcard netmask that does not contain holes. In other words, where the netmask presents consecutive binary 1's. For example, 00000000.00000000.00011111.11111111 or hex 0.0.31.255. If the mask is meant to be normal and all access list netmasks on that server are normal then use the normal setting acl-netmask-convert for the AAA server.

109031

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-4-109031: NT Domain Authentication Failed: rejecting guest 
login for username. 

Explanation    This message is displayed when a user tries to authenticate to an NT Auth domain that was configured for guest account access and the username is not a valid username on the NT server. The connection is denied.

Recommended Action    If the user is a valid user add an account to the NT server. If the user is not allowed access, no action is required.

109032

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-3-109032: Unable to install ACL access_list, downloaded for user 
username; Error in ACE: ace.

Explanation    This message is displayed when an access control list is received from a RADIUS server during the authentication of a network user. The log event indicates a syntax error in one of the elements of the access list. When this occurs, the element is discarded but the rest of access list is still applied. The entire text of the malformed element is included in the message. Note that this condition does not result in an authentication failure.

access_list—The name assigned to the dynamic access list as it would appear in the output of the show access-list command.

username—The name of the user whose connection will be subject to this access list.

ace—The access list entry that was being processed when the error was detected.

Recommended Action    Correct the access list definition in the RADIUS server configuration.

109033

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-4-109033: Authentication failed for admin user user from 
src_IP. Interactive challenge processing is not supported for protocol connections

Explanation    AAA challenge processing was triggered during authentication of an administrative connection, but the security appliance cannot initiate interactive challenge processing with the client application. When this occurs, the authentication attempt will be rejected and the connection denied.

user—The name of the user being authenticated.

src_IP—The IP address of the client host.

protocol—The client connection protocol. Possible values: "SSH v1" or "administrative HTTP."

Recommended Action    Reconfigure AAA so that challenge processing does not occur for these connection types. This generally means to avoid authenticating these connection types to RSA SecurID servers or to any token-based AAA server via RADIUS.

109034

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-4-109034: Authentication failed for network user user from 
src_IP/port to dst_IP/port. Interactive challenge processing is not supported for 
protocol connections

Explanation    AAA challenge processing was triggered during authentication of a network connection, but the security appliance cannot initiate interactive challenge processing with the client application. When this occurs, the authentication attempt will be rejected and the connection denied.

user—The name of the user being authenticated.

src_IP/port—The IP address and port of the client host.

dst_IP/port—The IP address and port of the server to which the client is attempting to connect.

protocol—The client connection protocol. Possible value: "FTP."

Recommended Action    Reconfigure AAA so that challenge processing does not occur for these connection types. This generally means to avoid authenticating these connection types to RSA SecurID servers or to any token-based AAA server via RADIUS.

109035

Error Message    %ASA-3-109035: Exceeded maximum number (999) of DAP attribute 
instances for user string.

Explanation    The Dynamic Access Policy supports multiple values of the same attribute received from an AAA server. If the AAA server should send a response containing more than 999 values for the same attribute, then the ASA will treat this response message as being malformed and reject the authentication. This condition has only been seen in lab environments using specialized test tools. It is unlikely that the condition should occur in a real-world production network.

string—The username at login

Recommended Action    If this message is generated, it would be helpful to capture the authentication traffic between the ASA and AAA server using a protocol sniffer (such as WireShark) and forward the trace file to Cisco Engineering for analysis.

109036

Error Message    %ASA-3-109036: RADIUS Server has received a request from unconfigured 
ip address src_ip_addr, dropping the request.

Explanation    The local RADIUS Server is not configured to receive requests from the specified source. The local RADIUS Server accepts RADIUS requests only from the IP address using the radius-client-interface if_name [ip ip_address]key secret_key command. RADIUS requests from all other IP addresses are dropped. This message is rate-limited at 1 message every 10 seconds.

src_ip_addr—The source IP address of the originator of the RADIUS request

Recommended Action    Investigate who is generating such packets and why. Block the sender if it is not the wireless AP.

109037

Error Message    %ASA-6-109037: RADIUS Server has sent an Access Accept message to the 
client ip-address, user = username

Explanation    The RADIUS Server successfully authenticated a user according to the local database and sent a RADIUS Access-Accept message to the client.

ip-address—The IP address of the RADIUS client

Messages 201002 to 219002

This section contains messages from 201002 to 219002.

201002

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-3-201002: Too many TCP connections on {static|xlate} 
global_address! econns nconns

Explanation    This is a connection-related message. This message is displayed when the maximum number of TCP connections to the specified global address was exceeded. The econns variable is the maximum number of embryonic connections and the nconns variable is the maximum number of connections permitted for the static or xlate.

Recommended Action    Use the show static or show nat command to check the limit imposed on connections to a static address. The limit is configurable.

201003

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-2-201003: Embryonic limit exceeded nconns/elimit for 
outside_address/outside_port (global_address) inside_address/inside_port on interface 
interface_name

Explanation    This is a connection-related message regarding traffic to the security appliance. This message is displayed when the number of embryonic connections from the specified foreign address with the specified static global address to the specified local address exceeds the embryonic limit. When the limit on embryonic connections to the security appliance is reached, the security appliance attempts to accept them anyway, but puts a time limit on the connections. This situation allows some connections to succeed even if the security appliance is very busy. The nconns variable lists the number of embryonic connections received and the elimit variable lists the maximum number of embryonic connections specified in the static or nat command.

Recommended Action    This message indicates a more serious overload than message 201002. It could be caused by a SYN attack, or by a very heavy load of legitimate traffic. Use the show static command to check the limit imposed on embryonic connections to a static address.

201004

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-3-201004: Too many UDP connections on {static|xlate} 
global_address! udp connections limit

Explanation    This is a connection-related message. This message is displayed when the maximum number of UDP connections to the specified global address was exceeded. The udp conn limit variable is the maximum number of UDP connections permitted for the static or translation.

Recommended Action    Use the show static or show nat command to check the limit imposed on connections to a static address. You can configure the limit.

201005

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-3-201005: FTP data connection failed for IP_address IP_address

Explanation    The security appliance could not allocate a structure to track the data connection for FTP because of insufficient memory.

Recommended Action    Reduce the amount of memory usage or purchase additional memory.

201006

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-3-201006: RCMD backconnection failed for IP_address/port.

Explanation    This is a connection-related message. This message is displayed if the security appliance is unable to preallocate connections for inbound standard output for rsh commands due to insufficient memory.

Recommended Action    Check the rsh client version; the security appliance only supports the Berkeley rsh. You can also reduce the amount of memory usage, or purchase additional memory.

201008

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-3-201008: The security appliance is disallowing new 
connections.

Explanation    This message appears when you have enabled TCP syslog messaging and the syslog server cannot be reached, or when using security appliance syslog server (PFSS) and the disk on the Windows NT system is full, or when the auto-update timeout is configured and the auto-update server is not reachable.

Recommended Action    Disable TCP syslog messaging. If using PFSS, free up space on the Windows NT system where PFSS resides. Also, make sure that the syslog server is up and you can ping the host from the security appliance console. Then restart TCP system message logging to allow traffic. If the Auto Update Server has not been contacted for a certain period of time, the following command will cause it to cease sending packets: [no] auto-update timeout period.

201009

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-3-201009: TCP connection limit of number for host IP_address 
on interface_name exceeded

Explanation    This is a connection-related message. This message is displayed when the maximum number of connections to the specified static address was exceeded. The number variable is the maximum of connections permitted for the host specified by the IP_address variable.

Recommended Action    Use the show static and show nat commands to check the limit imposed on connections to an address. The limit is configurable.

201010

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-3-201010: Embryonic connection limit exceeded econns/limit 
for dir packet from source_address/source_port to dest_address/dest_port on 
interface interface_name

Explanation    An attempt to establish a TCP connection failed due to an exceeded embryonic connection limit, which was configured with the set connection embryonic-conn-max MPC command for a traffic class.

econns—The current count of embryonic connections associated to the configured traffic class.

limit—The configured embryonic connection limit for the traffic class.

dir
input: The first packet that initiates the connection is an input packet on the interface interface_name.
output: The first packet that initiates the connection is an output packet on the interface interface_name.

source_address/source_port—The source real IP address and the source port of the packet initiating the connection.

dest_address/dest_port—The destination real IP address and the destination port of the packet initiating the connection.

interface_name—The name of the interface on which the policy limit is enforced.

Recommended Action    None required.

201011

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-3-201011: Connection limit exceeded cnt/limit for dir packet 
from sip/sport to dip/dport on interface if_name.

Explanation    A new connection through the firewall device resulted in exceeding at least one of the configured maximum connection limits. This message applies both to connection limits configured using a "static" command, or to those configured using Cisco Modular Policy Framework. The new connection will not be allowed through the firewall device until one of the existing connections are torn down thereby bringing the current connection count below the configured maximum.

cnt—Current connection count.

limit—Configured connection limit.

dir—Direction of traffic, inbound or outbound.

sip—Source real IP address.

sport—Source Port.

dip—Destination real IP address.

dport—Destination Port.

if_name—Name of the interface on which we received the traffic.

Recommended Action    None required.

201012

Error Message    %ASA-6-201012: Per-client embryonic connection limit exceeded curr 
num/limit for [input|output] packet from IP_address/ port to ip/port on interface 
interface_name

Explanation    An attempt to establish a TCP connection failed because the per-client embryonic connection limit was exceeded. By default, this message is rate limited to 1 message every 10 seconds.

curr num—The current number.

limit—The configured limit.

[input|output]—Input or output packet on interface interface_name.

IP_address—Real IP address.

port—TCP or UDP port.

interface_name—The name of the interface on which the policy is applied.

Recommended Action    When the limit is reached, any new connection request will be proxied by the security appliance to prevent a SYN flood attack. The security appliance will only connect to the server if the client is able to finish the three-way handshake. This usually does not affect the end user or the application. However, if this creates a problem for any application that has a legitimate need for a higher number of embryonic connections, you can adjust the setting by entering the set connection per-client-embryonic-max command.

201013

Error Message    %ASA-3-201013: Per-client connection limit exceeded curr num/limit for 
[input|output] packet from ip/port to ip/port on interface interface_name

Explanation    A connection was rejected because the per-client connection limit was exceeded.

curr num—The current number.

limit—The configured limit.

[input|output]—The input or output packet on interface interface_name.

IP_address—The real IP address.

port—The TCP or UDP port.

interface_name—The name of the interface on which the policy is applied.

Recommended Action    When the limit is reached any new connection request will be silently dropped. Normally an application will retry. This will cause delay or even a timeout if all retries also fail. If an application has a legitimate need for a higher number of concurrent connections, you can adjust the setting by entering the set connection per-client-max command.

202001

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-3-202001: Out of address translation slots!

Explanation    This is a connection-related message. This message is displayed if the security appliance has no more address translation slots available.

Recommended Action    Check the size of the global pool compared to the number of inside network clients. A PAT address may be necessary. Alternatively, shorten the timeout interval of translates and connections. This error message could also be caused by insufficient memory; reduce the amount of memory usage, or purchase additional memory usage if possible.

202005

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-3-202005: Non-embryonic in embryonic list 
outside_address/outside_port inside_address/inside_port

Explanation    This is a connection-related message. This message is displayed when a connection object (xlate) is in the wrong list.

Recommended Action    Contact the Cisco TAC.

202011

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-3-202011: Connection limit exceeded econns/limit for dir packet 
from source_address/source_port to dest_address/dest_port on interface interface_name

Explanation    This message is displayed when an attempt to create a TCP or UDP connection fails due to an exceeded connection limit which is configured with the set connection conn-max MPC command for a traffic class.

econns—The current count of embryonic connections associated to the configured traffic class.

limit—The configured embryonic connection limit for the traffic class.

dir
input—The first packet that initiates the connection is an input packet on the interface interface_name.

dest_address/dest_port—The destination IP address and the destination port of the packet initiating the connection.

interface_name—The name of the interface on which the policy limit is enforced.

Recommended Action    None required.

208005

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-3-208005: (function:line_num) clear command return code

Explanation    The security appliance received a nonzero value (an internal error) when attempting to clear the configuration in Flash memory. The message includes the reporting subroutine filename and line number.

Recommended Action    For performance reasons, the end host should be configured to not inject IP fragments. This configuration change is probably due to NFS. Set the read and write size equal to the interface MTU for NFS.

209003

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-4-209003: Fragment database limit of number exceeded: src = 
source_address, dest = dest_address, proto = protocol, id = number

Explanation    Too many IP fragments are currently awaiting reassembly. By default, the maximum number of fragments is 200 (refer to the fragment size command in the Cisco Security Appliance Command Reference to raise the maximum). The security appliance limits the number of IP fragments that can be concurrently reassembled. This restriction prevents memory depletion at the security appliance under abnormal network conditions. In general, fragmented traffic should be a small percentage of the total traffic mix. An exception is in a network environment with NFS over UDP where a large percentage is fragmented traffic; if this type of traffic is relayed through the security appliance, consider using NFS over TCP instead. To prevent fragmentation, see the sysopt connection tcpmss bytes command in the Cisco Security Appliance Command Reference.

Recommended Action    If this message persists, a denial of service (DoS) attack might be in progress. Contact the remote peer administrator or upstream provider.

209004

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-4-209004: Invalid IP fragment, size = bytes exceeds maximum 
size = bytes: src = source_address, dest = dest_address, proto = protocol, id = number

Explanation    An IP fragment is malformed. The total size of the reassembled IP packet exceeds the maximum possible size of 65,535 bytes.

Recommended Action    A possible intrusion event may be in progress. If this message persists, contact the remote peer's administrator or upstream provider.

209005

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-4-209005: Discard IP fragment set with more than number 
elements: src = Too many elements are in a fragment set. 

Explanation    The security appliance disallows any IP packet that is fragmented into more than 24 fragments. Refer to the fragment command in the Cisco Security Appliance Command Reference for more information.

Recommended Action    A possible intrusion event may be in progress. If the message persists, contact the remote peer administrator or upstream provider. You can change the number of fragments per packet by using the fragment chain xxx interface_name command.

210001

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-3-210001: LU sw_module_name error = number

Explanation    A Stateful Failover error occurred.

Recommended Action    If this error persists after traffic lessens through the security appliance, report this error to Cisco TAC.

210002

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-3-210002: LU allocate block (bytes) failed.

Explanation    Stateful Failover could not allocate a block of memory to transmit stateful information to the standby security appliance.

Recommended Action    Check the failover interface using the show interface command to make sure its transmit is normal. Also check the current block memory using the show block command. If current available count is 0 within any of the blocks of memory, then reload the security appliance software to recover the lost blocks of memory.

210003

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-3-210003: Unknown LU Object number

Explanation    Stateful Failover received an unsupported Logical Update object and therefore was unable to process it. This could be caused by corrupted memory, LAN transmissions, and other events.

Recommended Action    If you see this error infrequently, then no action is required. If this error occurs frequently, check the Stateful Failover link LAN connection. If the error was not caused by a faulty failover link LAN connection, determine if an external user is trying to compromise the protected network. Check for misconfigured clients.

210005

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-3-210005: LU allocate connection failed

Explanation    Stateful Failover cannot allocate a new connection on the standby unit. This may be caused by little or no RAM memory available within the security appliance.

Recommended Action    Check the available memory using the show memory command to make sure that the security appliance has free memory in the system. If there is no available memory, add more physical memory to the security appliance.

210006

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-3-210006: LU look NAT for IP_address failed

Explanation    Stateful Failover was unable to locate a NAT group for the IP address on the standby unit. The active and standby security appliance units may be out of synchronization.

Recommended Action    Use the write standby command on the active unit to synchronize system memory with the standby unit.

210007

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-3-210007: LU allocate xlate failed

Explanation    Stateful Failover failed to allocate a translation (xlate) slot record.

Recommended Action    Check the available memory by using the show memory command to make sure that the security appliance has free memory in the system. If no memory is available, add more memory.

210008

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-3-210008: LU no xlate for inside_address/inside_port 
outside_address/outside_port

Explanation    Unable to find a translation slot (xlate) record for a Stateful Failover connection; unable to process the connection information.

Recommended Action    Enter the write standby command on the active unit to synchronize system memory between the active and standby units.

210010

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-3-210010: LU make UDP connection for outside_address:outside_port 
inside_address:inside_port failed

Explanation    Stateful Failover was unable to allocate a new record for a UDP connection.

Recommended Action    Check the available memory by using the show memory command to make sure that the security appliance has free memory in the system. If no memory is available, add more memory.

210011

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-3-210011: Connection limit exceeded cnt/limit for dir packet 
from sip/sport to dip/dport on interface if_name.

Explanation    This syslog message indicates that establishing a new connection through the security appliance will result in exceeding at least one of the configured maximum connection limits. The syslog message applies both for connection limits configured using a "static" command, or to those configured using Cisco Modular Policy Framework. The new connection will not be allowed through the security appliance until one of the existing connections are torn down, thereby bringing the current connection count below the configured maximum.

cnt—Current connection count

limit—Configured connection limit

dir—Direction of traffic, inbound or outbound

sip—Source IP address

sport—Source port

dip—Destination IP address

dport—Destination port

if_name—Name of the interface on which we received the traffic unit, either "Primary" or "Secondary."

Recommended Action    Because connection limits are configured for a good reason, this syslog message could indicate a possible DOS attack, in which case the source of the traffic could likely be a spoofed IP address. If the source IP address is not totally random, identifying the source and blocking it using an access-list might help. In other cases getting sniffer traces and analyzing the source of the traffic would help in isolating unwanted traffic from legitimate traffic.

210020

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-3-210020: LU PAT port port reserve failed

Explanation    Stateful Failover is unable to allocate a specific PAT address which is in use.

Recommended Action    Enter the write standby command on the active unit to synchronize system memory between the active and standby units.

210021

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-3-210021: LU create static xlate global_address ifc 
interface_name failed

Explanation    Stateful Failover is unable to create a translation slot (xlate).

Recommended Action    Enter the write standby command on the active unit to synchronize system memory between the active and standby units.

210022

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-6-210022: LU missed number updates

Explanation    Stateful Failover assigns a sequence number for each record sent to the standby unit. When a received record sequence number is out of sequence with the last updated record, the information in between is assumed lost and this error message is sent.

Recommended Action    Unless there are LAN interruptions, check the available memory on both security appliance units to ensure that there is enough memory to process the stateful information. Use the show failover command to monitor the quality of stateful information updates.

211001

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-3-211001: Memory allocation Error

212005

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-3-212005: incoming SNMP request (number bytes) on interface 
interface_name exceeds data buffer size, discarding this SNMP request.

Explanation    This is an SNMP message. This message reports that the length of the incoming SNMP, request which is destined for the security appliance exceeds the size of the internal data buffer (512 bytes) used for storing the request during internal processing. The security appliance is unable to process this request. This situation does not affect the SNMP traffic passing through the security appliance using any interface.

Recommended Action    Have the SNMP management station resend the request with a shorter length. For example, instead of querying multiple MIB variables in one request, try querying only one MIB variable in a request. You may need to modify the configuration of the SNMP manager software.

212006

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-3-212006: Dropping SNMP request from source_address/source_port 
to interface_name:dest_address/dest_port because: reason.

Explanation    This is an SNMP message. This message is displayed if the device is unable to process a SNMP request to the device for the following reasons.

The snmp-server command is disabled.

SNMPv3 is not supported.

Recommended Action    Make sure that the SNMP daemon is entering by issuing the snmp-server enable command. Only SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c packets are handled by the device.

n—The message severity.

function—The affected component.

message—A message describing the cause of the problem.

Recommended Action    Search the Bug Toolkit for the specific text message and also try to use the Output Interpreter to resolve the problem. If the problem persists, contact the Cisco TAC.

216002

Error Message    PIX|ASA-3-216002: Unexpected event (major: major_id, minor: minor_id) 
received by task_string in function at line: line_num 

Explanation    This message is displayed when a task registers for event notification and the task cannot handle the specific event. Events that can be watched include those associated with queues, booleans, timer services, and so forth. If any of the registered events occur, the scheduler wakes up the task to process the event. This message is generated if an unexpected event woke up the task and it does not know how to handle the event.

If an event is left unprocessed, it can wake up the task very often to make sure it is processed, but this should not occur under normal conditions. If This message is displayed, it does not necessarily mean the box is unusable, but something unusual has occurred and needs to be investigated.

major_id—Event identifier

minor_id— Event identifier

task_string—Custom string passed by the task to identify itself

function—The function that received the unexpected event

line_num —Line number in the code

Recommended Action    If the problem persists, contact the Cisco TAC.

216003

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-3-216003: Unrecognized timer timer_ptr, timer_id received by 
task_string in function at line: line_num 

Explanation    This message is displayed when an unexpected timer event woke up the task and the task does not know how to handle the event. A task can register a set of timer services with the scheduler. If any of the timers expire, the scheduler wakes up the task to take action. This message is generated if the task is woken up by an unrecognized timer event.

An expired timer, if left unprocessed, wakes up the task continuously to make sure it is processed, and this is undesirable. This should not occur under normal conditions. If This message is displayed, it does not necessarily mean the box is unusable, but something unusual has occurred and needs to be investigated.

timer_ptr—Pointer to the timer

timer_id—Timer identifier

task_string—Custom string passed by the task to identify itself

function—The function that received the unexpected event

line_num—Line number in the code

305005

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-3-305005: No translation group found for protocol src 
interface_name: source_address/source_port dst interface_name: dest_address/dest_port

Explanation    A packet does not match any of the outbound nat command rules. If NAT is not configured for the specified source and destination systems, the message will be generated frequently.

Recommended Action    This message indicates a configuration error. If dynamic NAT is desired for the source host, ensure that the nat command matches the source IP address. If static NAT is desired for the source host, ensure that the local IP address of the static command matches. If no NAT is desired for the source host, check the ACL bound to the NAT 0 ACL.

305006

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-3-305006: {outbound static|identity|portmap|regular) 
translation creation failed for protocol src interface_name:source_address/source_port 
dst interface_name:dest_address/dest_port

Explanation    A protocol (UDP, TCP, or ICMP) failed to create a translation through the security appliance. This message appears as a fix to caveat CSCdr00663 that requested that security appliance not allow packets that are destined for network or broadcast addresses. The security appliance provides this checking for addresses that are explicitly identified with static command statements. With the change, for inbound traffic, the security appliance denies translations for a destined IP address identified as a network or broadcast address.

The security appliance does not apply PAT to all ICMP message types; it only applies PAT ICMP echo and echo-reply packets (types 8 and 0). Specifically, only ICMP echo or echo-reply packets create a PAT xlate. So, when the other ICMP messages types are dropped, syslog message 305006 (on the security appliance) is generated.

The security appliance utilizes the global IP and mask from configured static command statements to differ regular IP addresses from network or broadcast IP addresses. If the global IP address is a valid network address with a matching network mask, then the security appliance does not create a translation for network or broadcast IP addresses with inbound packets.

For example:

static (inside,outside) 10.2.2.128 10.1.1.128 netmask 255.255.255.128


Global address 10.2.2.128 is responded to as a network address and 10.2.2.255 is responded to as the broadcast address. Without an existing translation, security appliance denies inbound packets destined for 10.2.2.128 or 10.2.2.255, and logs this syslog message.

When the suspected IP is a host IP, configure a separated static command statement with a host mask in front of the subnet static (first match rule for static command statements). The following static causes the security appliance to respond to 10.2.2.128 as a host address:

static (inside,outside) 10.2.2.128 10.2.2.128 netmask 255.255.255.255
static (inside,outside) 10.2.2.128 10.2.2.128 netmask 255.255.255.128


The translation may be created by traffic started with the inside host with the questioned IP address. Because the security appliance views a network or broadcast IP address as a host IP address with overlapped subnet static configuration, the network address translation for both static command statements must be the same.

Recommended Action    None required.

305007

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-6-305007: addrpool_free(): Orphan IP IP_address on interface 
interface_number

Explanation    The security appliance has attempted to translate an address that it cannot find in any of its global pools. The security appliance assumes that the address was deleted and drops the request.

Recommended Action    None required.

305008

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-3-305008: Free unallocated global IP address.

Explanation    The security appliance kernel detected an inconsistency condition when trying to free an unallocated global IP address back to the address pool. This abnormal condition may occur if the security appliance is running a Stateful Failover setup and some of the internal states are momentarily out of synchronization between the active unit and the standby unit. This condition is not catastrophic, and the sync recovers automatically.

Recommended Action    If the problem persists, contact the Cisco TAC.

305009

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-6-305009: Built {dynamic|static} translation from 
interface_name [(acl-name)]:real_address to interface_name:mapped_address

Explanation    A TCP, UDP, or ICMP address translation slot was created. The slot translates the source socket from the local side to the global side. In reverse, the slot translates the destination socket from the global side to the local side.

Recommended Action    None required.

305012

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-6-305012: Teardown {dynamic|static} {TCP|UDP|ICMP} 
translation from interface_name [(acl-name)]:real_address/{real_port|real_ICMP_ID}to 
interface_name:mapped_address/{mapped_port|mapped_ICMP_ID} duration time

Explanation    The address translation slot was deleted.

Recommended Action    None required.

305013

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-5-305013: Asymmetric NAT rules matched for forward and 
reverse flows; Connection protocol src interface_name:source_address/source_port 
dest interface_name:dest_address/dest_port denied due to NAT reverse path failure.

Explanation    An attempt to connect to a mapped host using its actual address was rejected.

Recommended Action    When not on the same interface as the host using NAT, use the mapped address instead of the actual address to connect to the host. In addition, enable the applicable inspect command if the application embeds the IP address.

308001

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-6-308001: console enable password incorrect for number tries 
(from IP_address)

Explanation    This is a security appliance management message. This message is displayed after the specified number of times a user incorrectly types the password to enter privileged mode. The maximum is three attempts.

Recommended Action    Verify the password and try again.

308002

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-4-308002: static global_address inside_address netmask netmask 
overlapped with global_address inside_address

Explanation    The IP addresses in one or more static command statements overlap. global_address is the global address, which is the address on the lower security interface, and inside_address is the local address, which is the address on the higher security-level interface.

Recommended Action    Use the show static command to view the static command statements in your configuration and fix the commands that overlap. The most common overlap occurs if you specify a network address such as 10.1.1.0, and in another static command you specify a host within that range such as 10.1.1.5.

312001

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-6-312001: RIP hdr failed from IP_address: cmd=string, 
version=number domain=string on interface interface_name

Explanation    The security appliance received a RIP message with an operation code other than reply, the message has a version number different from what is expected on this interface, and the routing domain entry was nonzero.

Recommended Action    This message is informational, but it may also indicate that another RIP device is not configured correctly to communicate with the security appliance.

313001

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-3-313001: Denied ICMP type=number, code=code from IP_address 
on interface interface_name

Explanation    When using the icmp command with an access list, if the first matched entry is a permit entry, the ICMP packet continues processing. If the first matched entry is a deny entry or an entry is not matched, the security appliance discards the ICMP packet and generates this syslog message. The icmp command enables or disables pinging to an interface. With pinging disabled, the security appliance cannot be detected on the network. This feature is also referred to as configurable proxy pinging.

Recommended Action    Contact the administrator of the peer device.

313004

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-4-313004:Denied ICMP type=icmp_type, from source_address 
oninterface interface_name to dest_address:no matching session

Explanation    ICMP packets were dropped by the security appliance because of security checks added by the stateful ICMP feature that are usually either ICMP echo replies without a valid echo request already passed across the security appliance or ICMP error messages not related to any TCP, UDP, or ICMP session already established in the security appliance.

Recommended Action    None required.

313005

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-4-313005: No matching connection for ICMP error message: 
icmp_msg_info on interface_name interface. Original IP payload: 
embedded_frame_info icmp_msg_info = icmp src src_interface_name:src_address dst 
dest_interface_name:dest_address (type icmp_type, code icmp_code) 
embedded_frame_info = prot src source_address/source_port dst 
dest_address/dest_port

Explanation    ICMP error packets were dropped by the security appliance because the ICMP error messages are not related to any session already established in the security appliance.

Recommended Action    If the cause is an attack, you can deny the host by using ACLs.

313008

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-3-313008: Denied ICMPv6 type=number, code=code from 
IP_address on interface interface_name

Explanation    When using the icmp command with an access list, if the first matched entry is a permit entry, the ICMPv6 packet continues processing. If the first matched entry is a deny entry, or an entry is not matched, the security appliance discards the ICMPv6 packet and generates this syslog message.

The icmp command enables or disables pinging to an interface. When pinging is disabled, the security appliance is undetectable on the network. This feature is also referred to as "configurable proxy pinging."

Recommended Action    Contact the administrator of the peer device.

314003

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-6-314003: Dropped RTSP traffic from src_intf:src_ip due to: reason.

Explanation    The RTSP message violated the user-configured RTSP security policy, either because it contains a port from the reserve port range, or it contains a URL with a length greater than the maximum limit allowed.

src_intf—Source interface name

src_IP—Source interface IP address

reason—One of the following two reasons pertain:

Endpoint negotiating media ports in the reserved port range from 0 to 1024

URL length of <url length> bytes exceeds the maximum <url length limit> bytes

339001

Error Message    %ASA-3-339001: UC-IME-SIG: Ticket not found in SIP %s from %s:%A/%d to 
%s:%A/%d, packet dropped 

Explanation    For UC-IME SIP signaling, all dialog-forming SIP messages received from the outside must contain the UC-IME ticket header. If this header is missing from the message, the message will be dropped during SIP inspection. This header is only required when an existing SIP session (as determined by current SIP inspection rules) cannot be found for the message being inspected.

%s—SIP message name (INVITE, REFER, and so on)

%s—Source interface name (inside or outside)

%A—Source IP address

%d—Source port

%s—Destination interface name (inside or outside)

%A—Destination IP address

%d—Destination port

Recommended Action    Check to see if UC-IME calls are being spoofed.

339002

Error Message    %ASA-3-339002: UC-IME-SIG: Invalid ticket in SIP %s from %s:%A/%d to 
%s:%A/%d, packet dropped, %s

Explanation    When UC-IME ticket inspection and validation are performed, several data checks for timestamp validity and epoch matching, among others, are performed. If any of these checks fail, the SIP message or packet will be dropped.

%s—SIP message name (INVITE, REFER, and so on)

%s—Source interface name (inside or outside)

%A—Source IP address

%d—Source port

%s—Destination interface name (inside or outside)

%A—Destination IP address

%d—Destination port

%s—Additional description or data about the error condition

Recommended Action    Check to see if UC-IME calls are being spoofed. Turn on UC-IME debug tracing to obtain more details about the error condition.

339003

Error Message    %ASA-3-339003: UC-IME-SIG: Non-dialog forming SIP %s received from 
%s:%A/%d to %s:%A/%d, packet dropped

Explanation    When a SIP message is inspected by the UC-IME feature, checks are performed to see if the message belongs to an existing SIP session. In a non-UC-IME scenario, a SIP request received will create a SIP session (if permitted by a configured policy). However, for the UC-IME feature, non-dialog-creating SIP messages are not permitted to create a SIP session in the security appliance and are dropped.

%s—SIP message name (INVITE, REFER, and so on)

%s—Source interface name (inside or outside)

%A—Source IP address

%d—Source port

%s—Destination interface name (inside or outside)

%A—Destination IP address

%d—Destination port

Recommended Action    Check to see if UC-IME calls are being spoofed.

339004

Error Message    %ASA-3-339004: UC-IME-SIG: Dropping SIP %s received from %s:%A/%d to 
%s:%A/%d, route header validation failed, %s

Explanation    When an outbound SIP message is inspected by the UC-IME feature, the domain name included in the SIP route header is compared to the TLS certificate domain name. This comparison allows the UC-IME feature on the ASA to determine whether or not the SIP message is actually terminating at the intended enterprise. If a mismatch occurs, it implies that the remote end is not serving that domain, and the SIP session should be terminated.

%s—SIP message name (INVITE, REFER, and so on)

%s—Source interface name (inside or outside)

%A—Source IP address

%d—Source port

%s—Destination interface name (inside or outside)

%A—Destination IP address

%d—Destination port

%s—Additional description or data about the error condition (for example, the domain names received)

Recommended Action    Check to see if the remote enterprise is attempting to hijack UC-IME calls.

339005

Error Message    %ASA-3-339005: UC-IME-SIG: Message received from %s:%A/%d to %s:%A/%d 
does not contain SRTP, message dropped

Explanation    For UC-IME SIP signaling, SIP messages received that have media content from the outside need to be SRTP. If this content is not SRTP, the message will be dropped during SIP inspection.

%s—Source interface name (inside or outside)

%A—Source IP address

%d—Source port

%s—Destination interface name (inside or outside)

%A—Destination IP address

%d—Destination port

Recommended Action    None required.

339006

Error Message    %ASA-3-339006: UC-IME-Offpath: Failed to map remote UCM address %A:%d 
on %s interface, request from local UCM %A:%d on %s interface, reason %s

Explanation    For the UC-IME Mapping Service to work correctly, a correct configuration of global NAT must be in place. If this misconfiguration is detected, a syslog error message will be generated to inform the administrator. At the same time, all requests from UCM clients must conform to the Mapping Service stun message format. All nonconforming requests will be dropped silently, and a syslog error message will be generated to notify the administrator about this occurrence.

%A—Remote UCM IP address

%d—Remote UCM port

%s—Interface for the remote UCM IP address or port address

%A— Local UCM IP address (used for the mapping-service connection)

%d— Local UCM port (used for the mapping-service connection)

%s—Interface for the local UCM IP address or port address

%s—Failure reason

Recommended Action    Check to see if the UC-IME Offpath and the UCM Offpath are configured correctly.

339007

Error Message    %ASA-6-339007: UC-IME-Offpath: Mapped address %A:%d on %s interface

Recommended Action    None required.

339009

Error Message    %ASA-6-339009: UC-IME: Ticket Password changed. Please update the same 
on UC-IME server.

Explanation    The security appliance administrator is allowed to change the ticket password without knowing the old password. This message is generated to ensure that the administrator is aware of this change. The syslog also serves as a reminder to the administrator that if the UC-IME password is changed on the security appliance, it should also be changed on the UC-IME server for everything to function correctly.

Recommended Action    Verify that the ticket password has been changed on the UC-IME server to match the value configured on the security appliance.

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-4-401001: Shuns cleared

Explanation    The clear shun command was entered to remove existing shuns from memory.

Recommended Action    None required. This message is displayed to allow an institution to keep a record of shunning activity.

401002

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-4-401002: Shun added: IP_address IP_address port port

Explanation    A shun command was entered, where the first IP address is the shunned host. The other addresses and ports are optional and are used to terminate the connection if available.

Recommended Action    None required. This message is displayed to allow an institution to keep a record of shunning activity.

401003

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-4-401003: Shun deleted: IP_address

Explanation    A single shunned host was removed from the shun database.

Recommended Action    None required. This message is displayed to allow an institution to keep a record of shunning activity.

401004

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-4-401004: Shunned packet: IP_address ==> IP_address on interface 
interface_name

Explanation    A packet was dropped because the host defined by IP SRC is a host in the shun database. A shunned host cannot pass traffic on the interface on which it is shunned. For example, an external host on the Internet can be shunned on the outside interface.

Recommended Action    None required. This message provides a record of the activity of shunned hosts. This message and syslog message %PIX|ASA-4-401005 can be used to evaluate further risk assessment concerning this host.

401005

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-4-401005: Shun add failed: unable to allocate resources for 
IP_address IP_address port port

Explanation    The security appliance is out of memory; a shun could not be applied.

Recommended Action    The Cisco Intrusion Detection System should continue to attempt to apply this rule. Attempt to reclaim memory and reapply a shun manually, or wait for the Cisco Intrusion Detection System to do this.

402114

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-4-402114: IPSEC: Received an protocol packet (SPI=spi, sequence 
number= seq_num) from remote_IP to local_IP with an invalid SPI. 

protocol—IPSec protocol

spi—IPSec Security Parameter Index

seq_numIPSec sequence number

remote_IPIP address of the remote endpoint of the tunnel

username—Username associated with the IPSec tunnel

local_IPIP address of the local endpoint of the tunnel

Explanation    This message is displayed when an IPSec packet is received that specifies an SPI that does not exist in the SA database. This may be a temporary condition due to slight differences in aging of SAs between the IPSec peers, or it may be because the local SAs have been cleared. It may also indicate incorrect packets sent by the IPSec peer, which may be part of an attack. This message is rate limited to no more than one message every five seconds.

Recommended Action    The peer may not acknowledge that the local SAs have been cleared. If a new connection is established from the local router, the two peers may then reestablish successfully. Otherwise, if the problem occurs for more than a brief period, either attempt to establish a new connection or contact the peer administrator.

402115

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-4-402115: IPSEC: Received a packet from remote_IP to local_IP 
containing act_prot data instead of exp_prot data.

Explanation    This message is displayed when an IPSec packet is received that is missing the expected ESP header. The peer is sending packets that do not match the negotiated security policy. This may indicate an attack. This message is rate limited to no more than one message every five seconds.

remote_IPIP address of the remote endpoint of the tunnel

local_IPIP address of the local endpoint of the tunnel

act_prot—Received IPSec protocol

exp_prot—Expected IPSec protocol

Recommended Action    Contact the peer administrator.

402116

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-4-402116: IPSEC: Received an protocol packet (SPI=spi, sequence 
number= seq_num) from remote_IP (username) to local_IP. The decapsulated inner packet 
doesn't match the negotiated policy in the SA. The packet specifies its destination 
as pkt_daddr, its source as pkt_saddr, and its protocol as pkt_prot. The SA specifies 
its local proxy as id_daddr /id_dmask /id_dprot /id_dport and its remote proxy as 
id_saddr /id_smask /id_sprot /id_sport.

Explanation    This message is displayed when a decapsulated IPSec packet does not match the negotiated identity. The peer is sending other traffic through this security association. It may be due to a security association selection error by the peer, or it may be part of an attack. This message is rate limited to no more than one message every five seconds.

protocol—IPSec protocol

402117

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-4-402117: IPSEC: Received a non-IPSec (protocol) packet from 
remote_IP to local_IP.

Explanation    This message is displayed when the received packet matched the crypto map ACL, but it is not IPSec-encapsulated. The IPSec Peer is sending unencapsulated packets. This error can occur because of a policy setup error on the peer. For example, the firewall may be configured to only accept encrypted Telnet traffic to the outside interface port 23. If you attempt to Telnet without IPSec encryption to the outside interface on port 23, this message appears, but not on telnet or traffic to the outside interface on ports other than 23. This error can also indicate an attack. This syslog message is not generated except under these conditions (for example, it is not generated for traffic to the firewall interfaces themselves). See messages 710001, 710002, and 710003 for messages that track TCP and UDP requests. This message is rate limited to no more than one message every five seconds.

protocol—IPSec protocol

remote_IPIP address of the remote endpoint of the tunnel

local_IPIP address of the local endpoint of the tunnel

Recommended Action    Contact the peer administrator to compare policy settings.

402118

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-4-402118: IPSEC: Received an protocol packet (SPI=spi, sequence 
number seq_num) from remote_IP (username) to local_IP containing an illegal IP 
fragment of length frag_len with offset frag_offset.

Explanation    This message is displayed when a decapsulatd IPSec packet contains an IP fragment with an offset less than or equal to 128 bytes.

403504

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-3-403504: PPPoE:No 'vpdn group group_name' for PPPoE is 
created

Explanation    PPPoE requires a dial-out configuration before starting a PPPoE session. In general, the configuration should specify a dialing policy, the PPP authentication, the username, and a password. The following example configures the security appliance for PPPoE dialout. The my-username and my-password commands are used to authenticate the access concentrator, using PAP if necessary.

For example:

vpdn group my-pppoe request dialout pppoe
vpdn group my-pppoe ppp authentication pap
vpdn group my-pppoe localname my-username
vpdn username my-username password my-password
ip address outside pppoe setroute

Recommended Action    Configure a VPDN group for PPPoE.

Recommended Action    Remove the current default route or remove the "setroute" parameter so that there is no conflict between PPPoE and the manually configured route.

403506

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-4-403506: PPPoE:failed to assign PPP IP_address netmask netmask 
at interface_name

Explanation    This message is followed by - subnet is the same as interface, or on failover channel.

Recommended Action    In the first case, change the address causing the conflict. In the second case, configure the PPPoE on an interface other than the failover interface.

403507

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-3-403507:PPPoE:PPPoE client on interface interface failed to 
locate PPPoE vpdn group group_name

Explanation    You can configure the PPPoE client on an interface to use a particular VPDN group by entering the pppoe client vpdn group group_name command. If a PPPoE VPDN group of the configured name is not located during system startup, this syslog message is generated.

interface—The interface on which the PPPoE client failed.

group_name —The VPDN group name of the PPPoe client on the interface.

Recommended Action    Perform the following steps:

1. Add the required VPDN group by entering the vpdn group group_name command. Request dialout PPPoE in global configuration mode and add all the group properties.

2. Remove the pppoe client vpdn group group_name command from the interface indicated. In this case, the PPPoE client will attempt to use the first PPPoE VPDN group defined.


Note All changes take effect only after the PPPoE client on the interface is restarted by entering the ip address pppoe command.

inside_address[/inside_port]

Explanation    The module failed to allocate RAM system memory while starting a connection or has no more address translation slots available.

Recommended Action    If this message occurs periodically, it can be ignored. You can check the size of the global pool compared to the number of inside network clients. A PAT address may be necessary. Alternatively, shorten the timeout interval of translates and connections. This error message may also be caused by insufficient memory; try reducing the amount of memory usage, or purchasing additional memory. If the problem persists, contact the Cisco TAC.

405002

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-4-405002: Received mac mismatch collision from 
IP_address/MAC_address for authenticated host

Explanation    This packet appears for one of the following conditions:

The security appliance received a packet with the same IP address but a different MAC address from one of its uauth entries.

You configured the vpnclient mac-exempt command on the security appliance, and the security appliance receives a packet with an exempt MAC address but a different IP address from the corresponding uauth entry.

Recommended Action    This traffic might be legitimate, or it might indicate that a spoofing attack is in progress. Check the source MAC address and IP address to determine where the packets are coming from and check to see if they belong to a valid host.

405101

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-4-405101: Unable to Pre-allocate H225 Call Signalling 
Connection for foreign_address outside_address[/outside_port] to local_address 
inside_address[/inside_port]

Explanation    The security appliance failed to allocate RAM system memory while starting a connection or has no more address translation slots available.

Recommended Action    Check the size of the global pool compared to the number of inside network clients. A PAT address may be necessary. Alternatively, shorten the timeout interval of xlates and connections. This could also be caused by insufficient memory; reduce the amount of memory usage, or purchase additional memory. If this message occurs periodically, it can be ignored. If the problem persists, contact the Cisco TAC.

405102

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-4-405102: Unable to Pre-allocate H245 Connection for 
foreign_address outside_address[/outside_port] to local_address

405103

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-4-405103: H225 message from source_address/source_port to 
dest_address/dest_port contains bad protocol discriminator hex

Explanation    PIX is expecting the protocol discriminator, 0x08, but it received something other than 0x08. This might happen because the endpoint is sending a bad packet, or received a message segment other than the first segment.

Recommended Action    None required. The packet is allowed through.

405104

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-4-405104: H225 message received from outside_address/outside_port 
to inside_address/inside_port before SETUP

Explanation    This message appears after an H.225 message is received out of order. The H.225 message was received before the initial SETUP message, which is not allowed. The security appliance must receive an initial SETUP message for that H.225 call signalling channel before accepting any other H.225 messages.

Recommended Action    None required.

405105

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-4-405105: H323 RAS message AdmissionConfirm received from 
source_address/source_port to dest_address/dest_port without an AdmissionRequest

Explanation    A gatekeeper has sent an admission confirm (ACF), but the security appliance did not send an admission request (ARQ) to the gatekeeper.

Recommended Action    Check the gatekeeper with the specified source_address to determine why it sent an ACF without receiving an ARQ from the security appliance.

405106

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-4-405106: H323 num channel is not created from %I/%d to %I/%d

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-4-405201: ILS ILS_message_type from 
inside_interface:source_IP_address to outside_interface:/destination_IP_address 
has wrong embedded address embedded_IP_address

Explanation    The embedded address in the ILS packet payload is not the same as the source IP address of the IP packet header.

Recommended Action    Check the host with the specified with the source_IP_address to determine why it sent an ILS packet with an incorrect embedded IP address.

405300

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-4-405300: Radius Accounting Request received from from_addr 
is not allowed

Explanation    The accounting request came from a host that was not configured in the policy-map. The message is logged and processing stops.

from_addr—The IP address of the host sending the request.

Recommended Action    If the host was configured to send RADIUS accounting messages to the security appliance, make sure it was configured in the correct policy-map that was applied to the service-policy. If the host was not configured to send RADIUS accounting messages to the security appliance, then check to see why the messages are being sent. If the messages are illegitimate, then create the proper ACLs to drop the packets.

405301

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-4-405301: Attribute attribute_number does not match for user user_ip

Explanation    When the validate-attribute command is entered, the attribute values stored in the Accounting Request Start received do not match those stored in entry, if it exists.

406001

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-4-406001: FTP port command low port: IP_address/port to 
IP_address on interface interface_name

Explanation    A client entered an FTP port command and supplied a port less than 1024 (in the well-known port range typically devoted to server ports). This is indicative of an attempt to avert the site security policy. The security appliance drops the packet, terminates the connection, and logs the event.

Recommended Action    None required.

406002

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-4-406002: FTP port command different address: 
IP_address(IP_address) to IP_address on interface interface_name

Explanation    A client issued an FTP port command and supplied an address other than the address used in the connection. This error message is indicative of an attempt to avert the site.s security policy. For example, an attacker might attempt to hijack an FTP session by changing the packet on the way, and putting different source information instead of the correct source information. The security appliance drops the packet, terminates the connection, and logs the event. The address in parenthesis is the address from the port command.

Recommended Action    None required.

407001

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-4-407001: Deny traffic for local-host 
interface_name:inside_address, license limit of number exceeded

Explanation    The host limit was exceeded. An inside host is counted toward the limit when one of the following conditions is true:

The inside host has forwarded traffic through the security appliance within the last five minutes.

The inside host currently reserved an xlate connection or user authentication at the security appliance.

Recommended Action    The host limit is enforced on the low-end platforms. Use the show version command to view the host limit. Use the show local-host command to view the current active hosts and the inside users that have sessions at the security appliance. To forcefully disconnect one or more users, use the clear local-host command. To expire the inside users more quickly from the limit, set the xlate, connection, and uauth timeouts to the recommended values or lower. (See Table 1-6.)

Table 1-6 Timeouts and Recommended Values

407002

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-4-407002: Embryonic limit nconns/elimit for through connections 
exceeded.outside_address/outside_port to global_address (inside_address)/inside_port on 
interface interface_name

Explanation    This message is about connections through the security appliance. This message is displayed when the number of connections from a specified foreign address over a specified global address to the specified local address exceeds the maximum embryonic limit for that static. The security appliance attempts to accept the connection if it can allocate memory for that connection. It proxies on behalf of local host and sends a SYN_ACK packet to the foreign host. The security appliance retains pertinent state information, drops the packet, and waits for the acknowledgment from the client.

Recommended Action    The message might indicate legitimate traffic, or indicate that a denial of service (DoS) attack is in progress. Check the source address to determine where the packets are coming from and whether it is a valid host.

407003

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-4-407003: Established limit for RPC services exceeded number

Explanation    The security appliance tried to open a new hole for a pair of RPC servers or services that have already been configured after the maximum number of holes has been met.

Recommended Action    Wait for other holes to be closed (through associated timeout expiration) or limit the number of active pairs of servers or services.

408001

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-4-408001: IP route counter negative - reason, IP_address 
Attempt: number

Explanation    An attempt to decrement the IP route counter into a negative value failed.

Recommended Action    Enter the clear ip route * command to reset the route counter. If the problem persists, contact the Cisco TAC.

408002

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-4-408002: ospf process id route type update address1 netmask1 
[distance1/metric1] via source IP:interface1 address2 netmask2 [distance2/metric2] interface2

Explanation    A network update was received from a different interface with the same distance and a better metric than the existing route. The new route overrides the existing route that was installed through another interface. The new route is for redundancy purposes only and means that a path has shifted in the network. This change must be controlled through topology and redistribution. Any existing connections affected by this change are probably disabled and will timeout. This path shift only occurs if the network topology has been specifically designed to support path redundancy, in which case it is expected.

412001

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-4-412001:MAC MAC_address moved from interface_1 to interface_2

Explanation    This message is generated when a host move is detected from one module interface to another. In a transparent security appliance, mapping between the host (MAC) and security appliance port is maintained in a Layer 2 forwarding table. The table dynamically binds packet source MAC addresses to a security appliance port. In this process, whenever movement of a host from one interface to another interface is detected, this message is generated.

Recommended Action    The host move might be valid or the host move might be an attempt to spoof host MACs on other interfaces. If it is a MAC spoof attempt, you can either locate vulnerable hosts on your network and remove them or configure static MAC entries, which will not allow MAC address and port binding to change. If it is a genuine host move, no action is required.

Messages 500001 to 509001

This section contains messages from 500001 to 509001.

500001

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-5-500001: ActiveX content modified src IP_address dest 
IP_address on interface interface_name.

Explanation    This message is displayed after you turn on the activex option using the filter command, and the security appliance detects an ActiveX object. The activex option allows the security appliance to filter out ActiveX contents by modifying it so that it no longer is tagged as an HTML object.

Recommended Action    None required.

500002

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-5-500002: Java content modified src IP_address dest IP_address 
on interface interface_name.

Explanation    This message is displayed after you turn on the java option using the filter command, and the security appliance detects an Java applet. The java option allows the security appliance to filter out Java contents by modifying it so that it no longer is tagged as an HTML object.

Recommended Action    None required.

500003

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-5-500003: Bad TCP hdr length (hdrlen=bytes, pktlen=bytes) from 
source_address/source_port to dest_address/dest_port, flags: tcp_flags, on interface 
interface_name

Explanation    This message indicates that a header length in TCP is incorrect. Some operating systems do not handle TCP resets (RSTs) correctly when responding to a connection request to a disabled socket. If a client tries to connect to an FTP server outside the security appliance and FTP is not listening, then the server sends an RST. Some operating systems send incorrect TCP header lengths, which causes this problem. UDP uses ICMP port unreachable messages.

The TCP header length may indicate that it is larger than the packet length, which results in a negative number of bytes being transferred. A negative number is displayed by syslog message as an unsigned number, which makes it appear much larger than it would be normally; for example, it may show 4 GB transferred in 1 second.

Recommended Action    None required. This message should occur infrequently.

500004

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-4-500004: Invalid transport field for protocol=protocol, from

This section contains messages from 602101 to 634001.

602101

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-6-602101: PMTU-D packet number bytes greater than effective 
mtu number dest_addr=dest_address, src_addr=source_address, prot=protocol

Explanation    This message occurs when the security appliance sends an ICMP destination unreachable message and when fragmentation is needed, but the "don't-fragment" bit is set.

Recommended Action    Ensure that the data is sent correctly.

602103

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-6-602103: IPSEC: Received an ICMP Destination Unreachable 
from src_addr with suggested PMTU of rcvd_mtu; PMTU updated for SA with peer 
peer_addr, SPI spi, tunnel name username, old PMTU old_mtu, new PMTU new_mtu. 

Explanation    This message is displayed when the MTU of an SA is changed. When a packet is received for an IPSec tunnel, the corresponding SA is located and the MTU is updated based on the MTU suggested in the ICMP packet. If the suggested MTU is greater than 0 but less than 256, then the new MTU is set to 256. If the suggested MTU is 0, the old MTU is reduced by 256 or it is set to 256, whichever value is greater. If the suggested MTU is greater than 256, then the new MTU is set to the suggested value.

src_addr—IP address of the PMTU sender

rcvd_mtu—Suggested MTU received in the PMTU message

peer_addr—IP address of the IPSec peer

spi—IPSec Security Parameter Index

username—Username associated with the IPSec tunnel

new_mtu—New MTU associated with the IPSec tunnel

Recommended Action    None required.

602104

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-6-602104: IPSEC: Received an ICMP Destination Unreachable 
from src_addr, PMTU is unchanged because suggested PMTU of rcvd_mtu is equal to or 
greater than the current PMTU of curr_mtu, for SA with peer peer_addr, SPI spi, tunnel 
name username.

src_addr—IP address of the PMTU sender

rcvd_mtu—Suggested MTU received in the PMTU message

curr_mtu—Current MTU associated with the IPSec tunnel

peer_addr—IP address of the IPSec peer

spi—IPSec Security Parameter Index

username—Username associated with the IPSec tunnel

Explanation    This message occurs when an ICMP message is received indicating that a packet sent over an IPSec tunnel exceeded the path MTU and the suggested MTU is greater than or equal to the current MTU. Because the MTU value is already correct, no MTU adjustment is made. This may happen when multiple PMTU messages are received from different intermediate stations and the MTU is adjusted before the current PMTU message is processed.

acquire message on interface interface num, for Peer IP_address ignored

Explanation    This message appears when the security appliance has received an IKE packet from a remote entity trying to initiate a tunnel. Because the security appliance is scheduled for a reboot or shutdown, it does not allow any more tunnels to be established. The IKE packet is ignored and dropped.

Explanation    None required.

713006

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-5-713006: Failed to obtain state for message Id 
message_number, Peer Address: IP_address 

Explanation    This message indicates that the security appliance does not know about the received message ID. The message ID is used to identify a specific IKE Phase 2 negotiation. This is most likely an error condition on the security appliance but may indicate that the two IKE peers are out of synchronization.

Recommended Action    None required.

713008

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-3-713008: Key ID in ID payload too big for pre-shared IKE 
tunnel

Explanation    This message indicates that a key ID value was received in the ID payload which was longer than the maximum allowed size of a groupname for this IKE session using preshared keys authentication. This is an invalid value and the session is rejected. Note that the key ID specified would never work because a groupname of that size cannot be created in the security appliance. Notify the user to change the incorrect groupname on the client.

Recommended Action    Make sure that the client peer (most likely an Altiga RA Client) specifies a valid groupname. The current maximum length for a groupname is 32.

713009

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-3-713009: OU in DN in ID payload too big for Certs IKE tunnel

Explanation    This message indicates that an OU value in the DN was received in the ID payload which was longer than the maximum allowed size of a groupname for this IKE session using Certs authentication. This OU is skipped and another OU or other criteria may find a matching group.

Recommended Action    For the client to be able to use an OU to find a group in the security appliance, the groupname must be a valid length. The current maximum length of a groupname is 32.

713010

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-5-713010: IKE area: failed to find centry for message Id 
message_number

Explanation    This message appears when an attempt is made to locate a conn_entry (IKE phase 2 struct that corresponds to an IPSec SA) by the unique Message ID failed. The internal structure was not found. This can occur if a session is terminated in a non-standard way, but it is more likely that it indicates an internal error.

Recommended Action    If this problem persists, investigate the peer.

713012

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-3-713012: Unknown protocol (protocol). Not adding SA w/spi=SPI 
value

715075

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-7-715075: Group = group_name, Username = client, IP = IP_address 
Received keep-alive of type message_type (seq number number)

Explanation    This new message is in pair with 715036 "DPD R-U-THERE" message which logs the DPD sending messages.

Two possible cases:

1) received peer sending "DPD R-U-THERE" message

2) received peer reply "DPD R-U-THERE-ACK" message

The user is recommended to observe the following:

Case 1—The "DPD R-U-THERE" is received and its sequence number matches with the outgoing DPD reply message's.

If f1 sends a "DPD R-U-THERE-ACK" without prior receiving "DPD R-U-THERE" from peer, it is likely experiencing security breech.

Case 2—The received "DPD R-U-THERE-ACK" message's sequence number is matched with previous sending DPD message's.

If f1 did not receive a "DPD R-U-THERE-ACK" for a reasonable time lap after sending "DPD R-U-THERE" to peer, the tunnel is most likely down.

group_name—The peer's VPN group name.

client—The peer's username.

IP_address—IP address of the VPN peer.

message_type—The message type ("DPD R-U-THERE" or "DPD R-U-THERE-ACK").

This is an error condition that will cause the connection to fail. This message is rate limited to one message every 10 seconds.

Recommended Action    Scalability is perhaps the most significant drawback to the CRL method of revocation checking. The only options to solve this problem are to investigate a Certificate Authority based solution to reduce the CRL size or configure the device not to require CRL validation.

717016

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-6-717016: Removing expired CRL from the CRL cache. Issuer: 
issuer

Explanation    When the device is configured to authenticate IPSec tunnels using digital certificates, Certificate Revocation Lists (CRLs) may be cached in memory to avoid requiring a CRL download during each connection. This log event is generated when either the CA specified expiration time or the configured cache-time has lapsed and the CRL is removed from the cache.

Recommended Action    None required. This is a routine occurrence.

717017

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-3-717017: Failed to query CA certificate for trustpoint

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-3-717018: CRL received from issuer has too many entries to 
process (number of entries = number_of_entries, maximum number allowed = max_allowed)

Explanation    This log event will be generated when an IPSec connection causes a CRL, that contains more revocation entries than can be supported, to be downloaded. This is an error condition that will cause the connection to fail. This message is rate limited to one message every 10 seconds.

issuer—The X.500 name of the CRLs issuer

number_of_entries—The number of revocation entries in the received CRL

max_allowed—The maximum number of CRL entries that the device supports

Recommended Action    Scalability is perhaps the most significant drawback to the CRL method of revocation checking. The only options to solve this problem are to investigate a Certificate Authority based solution to reduce the CRL size or configure the device not to require CRL validation.

717019

Error Message    %PIX|ASA-3-717019: Failed to insert CRL for trustpoint trustpoint_name. 
Reason: failure_reason.

Explanation    This log event will be generated when a CRL is retrieved but it is found to be invalid and cannot be inserted into the cache because of the failure_reason.

trustpoint_name—The name of the trustpoint that requested the CRL.

733100

Error Message    %ASA-4-733100: Object drop rate rate_ID exceeded. Current burst rate 
is rate_val per second, max configured rate is rate_val; Current average rate is 
rate_val per second, max configured rate is rate_val; Cumulative total count is 
total_cnt

Explanation    The specified object in the syslog message has exceeded the specified burst threshold rate or average threshold rate. The object can be drop activity of a host, TCP/UDP port, IP protocol, or various drops due to potential attacks. It indicates the system is under potential attack.

Object—The general or particular source of a drop rate count, which might include the following:

- Firewall

- Bad pkts

- Rate limit

- DoS attck

- ACL drop

- Conn limit

- ICMP attk

- Scanning

- SYN attck

- Inspect

- Interface

(A citation of a particular interface object might take a number of forms. For example, you might see "80/HTTP" that would signify port 80, with well-known protocol HTTP.)

rate_ID—The configured rate that is being exceeded. Most objects can be configured with up to three different rates for different intervals.

rate_val—A particular rate value.

total_cnt—The total count since the object was created or cleared.

The following three examples show how these variables occur:

For an interface drop due to a CPU or bus limitation:

"%ASA-4-733100: [Interface] drop rate 1 exceeded. Current burst rate is 1 per second, max configured rate is 8000; Current average rate is 2030 per second, max configured rate is 2000; Cumulative total count is 3930654."

For a scanning drop due to potential attacks:

"ASA-4-733100: [Scanning] drop rate-1 exceeded. Current burst rate is 10 per second_max configured rate is 10; Current average rate is 245 per second_max configured rate is 5; Cumulative total count is 147409 (35 instances received)

For bad packets due to potential attacks:

"%ASA-4-733100: [Bad pkts] drop rate 1 exceeded. Current burst rate is 0 per second, max configured rate is 400; Current average rate is 760 per second, max configured rate is 100; Cumulative total count is 1938933"

Recommended Action    Perform the following steps according to the specified object type that appears in the message:

1. If the object in the syslog message is one of the following:

Firewall

Bad pkts

Rate limit

DoS attck

ACL drop

Conn limit

ICMP attck

Scanning

SYN attck

Inspect

Interface

Check whether the drop rate is acceptable for the running environment.

2. Adjust the threshold rate of the particular drop to an appropriate value by running the threat-detection rate xxx command, where xxx is one of the following:

acl-drop

bad-packet-drop

conn-limit-drop

dos-drop

fw-drop

icmp-drop

inspect-drop

interface-drop

scanning-threat

syn-attack

3. If the object in the syslog message is a TCP or UDP port, an IP protocol, or a host drop, check whether the drop rate is acceptable for the running environment.

4. Adjust the threshold rate of the particular drop to an appropriate value by running the threat-detection rate bad-packet-drop command.


Note If you do not want the drop rate exceed warning to appear, you can disable it by running the no threat-detection basic-threat command.


733101

Error Message    %ASA-4-733101: Object objectIP (is targeted|is attacking). Current 
burst rate is rate_val per second, max configured rate is rate_val; Current average 
rate is rate_val per second, max configured rate is rate_val; Cumulative total 
count is total_cnt.

Explanation    Scanning detected. This syslog message is sent when the system detects that a specific host (or several hosts in the same 1024-node subnet) either is scanning the network (attacking), or is being scanned (targeted).

object—Attacker or target. This may be a specific host.or several hosts in the same 1024-node subnet).

objectIP—The IP address of the scanning attacker or scanned target.

rate_val—A particular rate value.

total_cnt—The total count.

The following two examples depict how these variables occur:

%ASA-4-733101: Subnet 100.0.0.0 is targeted. Current burst rate is 200 per second, max configured rate is 0; Current average rate is 0 per second, max configured rate is 0; Cumulative total count is 2028.

%ASA-4-733101: Host 175.0.0.1 is attacking. Current burst rate is 200 per second, max configured rate is 0; Current average rate is 0 per second, max configured rate is 0; Cumulative total count is 2024

Recommended Action    For the specific host or subnet, issue the show threat-detection statistics host <ip-address> <ip-mask> command to check the overall situation and then adjust the threshold rate of scanning-threat to appropriate value. Once the appropriate value is determined, an optional action can be taken to shun those host attackers (not subnet attacker) by configuring threat-detection scanning-threat shun-host. You may specify certain hosts or object groups in the shun-host except list. See the configuration guide for details. If scanning detection is not desirable, you can disable this feature by using the no threat-detection scanning command.

733102

Error Message    %ASA-4-733102:Threat-detection adds host %I to shun list 

Explanation    This message indicates that a host has been shunned by the threat detection engine. When the threat-detection scanning-threat shun command is configured, the attacking hosts will be shunned by the threat detection engine.

%I—A particular hostname.

The following example shows how to implement this command:

%ASA-4-733102: Threat-detection add host 11.1.1.40 to shun list

Recommended Action    To investigate whether the shunned host is an actual attacker, enter the threat-detection statistics host <ip-address> command. If the shunned host is not an attacker, you can remove the shunned host from the threat detection engine by entering the clear threat-detection shun <ip address> command. To remove all shunned hosts from the threat detection engine, enter the clear shun command.

If you receive this syslog message because an inappropriate threshold rate has been set to trigger the threat detection engine, then adjust the threshold rate by entering the threat-detection rate scanning-threat rate-interval <x> average-rate <y> burst-rate <z> command.

733103

Error Message    %ASA-4-733103: Threat-detection removes host %I from shun list

Explanation    This message indicates that a host has been shunned by the threat detection engine. When you enter the clear-threat-detection shun command, the specified host will be removed from the shunned list.

%I—A particular hostname.

The following example shows how to implement this command:

%ASA-4-733103: Threat-detection removes host 11.1.1.40 from shun list

742001

Error Message    %ASA-3-742001: failed to read master key for password encryption from 
persistent store

Explanation    An attempt to read the master password encryption key from the non-volatile memory after bootup failed. Encrypted passwords in the configuration are not decrypted unless the master key is set to the correct value using the key config-key password encryption command.

Recommended Action    If there are encrypted passwords in the configuration that must be used, set the master key to the previous value used to encrypt the password using the key config-key password encryption command. If there are no encrypted passwords or they could be discarded, set a new master key. If password encryption is not used, no action is required.

742002

Error Message    %ASA-3-742002: failed to set master key for password encryption 

Explanation    An attempt to read the key config-key password encryption command failed. The error may be caused by the following reasons:

Configuration from a non-secure terminal (for example, over a Telnet connection) was made.

Failover is enabled, but it does not use an encrypted link.

Another user is setting the key at the same time.

When trying to change the key, the old key is incorrect.

The key is too small to be secure.

Other reasons for the error may be valid. In these cases, the actual error is printed in response to the command.

Recommended Action    Correct the problem indicated in the command response.
