FW-1179
Message
<Port Name> <Label>, is between high and low boundaries(High=<High value>,
Low=<Low value>). Current value is <Value> <Unit>.
Message Type
LOG
Severity
INFO
Probable Cause
Indicates that the number of invalid words that the port experiences has changed from a value outside of
the acceptable range to a value within the acceptable range. Invalid words usually indicate a hardware
problem with a small form-factor pluggable (SFP) or cable.
Recommended
Action
No action is required. Respond to this message as is appropriate to the particular policy of the end-user
installation.
FW-1180
Message
<Port Name> <Label>, value has changed(High=<High value>, Low=<Low value>).
Current value is <Value> <Unit>.
Message Type
LOG
Severity
INFO
Probable Cause
Indicates that the number of invalid cyclic redundancy checks (CRCs) that the port experiences has
changed. Frequent fluctuations in CRC errors generally indicate an aging fabric.
Recommended
Action
No action is required. Respond to this message as is appropriate to the particular policy of the end-user
installation.
Check your small form-factor pluggables (SFPs), cables, and connections for faulty hardware. Verify that
all optical hardware is clean.
FW-1181
Message
<Port Name> <Label>, is below low boundary(High=<High value>, Low=<Low value>).
Current value is <Value> <Unit>.
Message Type
LOG
Severity
INFO
Probable Cause
Indicates that the number of invalid cyclic redundancy checks (CRCs) that the port experiences has
fallen below the low boundary. A low number of invalid CRCs means that the switch is functioning
normally.
Recommended
Action
No action is required. Respond to this message as is appropriate to the particular policy of the end-user
installation.
