FM Messages
Error Message %FM-2-TCP_FLAG_HW_EXCEPTION: No VLOUs available for TCP FLAGs for
interface [chars] in [chars] direction: all features on the interface for the
specified direction will be NOT effective
Explanation
No VLOUs are available for TCP flags. This condition cannot be handled in the
software for all the features configured on the interface. A message is printed on the console to
notify the user of this error condition. Because there are no features that the software can handle,
the system will program an entry to permit all traffic.
Recommended Action The hardware TCAM can handle up to 9 logical operations per interface and
up to 64 logical operations in total. To recover from this error, recompute the ACLs for the features
that cannot be handled in the software (for example, VACLs) to move entries using TCP flags before
others entries are moved and to minimize the usage of TCP flags.
Error Message %FM-2-TCP_FLAG_SW_EXCEPTION: No VLOUs available for TCP FLAGs on
interface [chars] in [chars] direction: traffic will be software switched,
features which are NOT processable in software will be NOT effective
Explanation
No VLOUs are available for TCP flags. This condition cannot be handled in the
software for some features configured on the interface. A message is printed on the console to notify
the user of this error condition. Because there are some features that can be handled in the software
(for example, VACLs and RACLs), an exception entry and traffic on this interface will be sent to the
software.
Recommended Action The hardware TCAM can handle up to 9 logical operations per interface and
up to 64 logical operations in total. To recover from this error, recompute the ACLs for the features
that cannot be handled in the software (for example, VACLs) to move entries using TCP flags before
others entries are moved and to minimize the usage of TCP flags.
FM-4
Error Message %FM-4-FLOWMASK_REDUCED: Features configured on interface [chars] have
conflicting flowmask requirements, some features may work in software
Explanation
The configured features for this interface have a flow mask conflict. The traffic on this
interface and the interfaces sharing the TCAM label with this interface will be sent to the software.
Recommended Action Redefine and reapply or unconfigure one or more features to avoid the conflict.
Error Message %FM-4-L2_DYN_TCAM_EXCEPTION: Failed to install Dynamic TCAM entry to
filter Layer 2 traffic, error status: [dec], host IP address: [IP_address],
interface: [chars]
Explanation
There is an error in installing the per-user policies in the Dynamic TCAM region to filter
Layer 2 traffic. The TCAM might be full. As a result, host ingress traffic will be subjected to the
default interface ACL.
Recommended Action Attempt to free up TCAM resources.
