AUTH-1040

4

Severity

ERROR

AUTH-1040

Message

<timestamp>, [AUTH-1040], <sequence-number>,, INFO, <system-name>, Reject

authentication on port <Port Number>, because switch authentication policy is set

to OFF.

Probable Cause

Indicates that the local switch has rejected the authentication because the switch policy is turned
off. If the neighboring switch has a strict (ON) switch policy, the light will go off due to conflicting
configuration settings. Otherwise E_Port will form without authentication.

Recommended

Action

If there is no light on the port, correct the switch policy configuration on either of the switches using
the authUtil command, and then enable the port on the neighboring switch using the portEnable
command. If the E_Port formed, no action is required.

Severity

INFO

AUTH-1041

Message

<timestamp>, [AUTH-1041], <sequence-number>,, ERROR, <system-name>, Port <port

number> has been disabled, because an authentication-reject was received with code

'<Reason String>' and explanation '<Explanation String>'.

Probable Cause

The specified port had been disabled, because it received an authentication-reject response from
the connected switch/device. The error might indicate that an invalid entity attempted to connect to
the switch.

Recommended

Action

Check the connection port for a possible security attack.

Check the shared secrets using the secAuthSecret command and reinitialize authentication using
the portDisable and portEnable commands.

If the message persists, run the supportFtp command (as needed) to set up automatic FTP
transfers; then run the supportSave command and contact your switch service provider.

Severity

ERROR

AUTH-1042

Message

<timestamp>, [AUTH-1042], <sequence-number>,, ERROR, <system-name>, Port <port

number> has been disabled, because authentication failed with code '<Reason

String>' and explanation '<Explanation String>'.

Probable Cause

The specified port has been disabled, because the connecting switch/device failed to authenticate.
The error might indicate that an invalid entity attempted to connect to the switch.

Recommended

Action

Check the connection port for a possible security attack.

Check the shared secrets using the secAuthSecret command and reinitialize authentication using
the portDisable and portEnable commands.
