This chapter describes messages with the ESW prefix. They are generated by the Ethernet Switching process (eswd), which maintains the timeout (lease time) value for each IP-address–MAC-address binding in its database.
interface-name: bpdu-block disabled port
This condition occurs when bpdu-block error condition is detected
Error: An error occurred
alert
interface-name: bpdu-block enabled port
This condition occurs when bpdu-block error condition is cleared
Error: An error occurred
alert
Invalid MAC address mac-addresse received on interface-name
Received a MAC address that is not in the configured valid MAC addresses for this interface.
Error: An error occurred
alert
MAC address recieved is not configured as a valid MAC address for this interface.
MAC limit (limit) exceeded at interface-name: shutting down the interface
Interface was blocked because the number of MAC addresses learned on an interface has exceeded the user configured limit.
Error: An error occurred
alert
More learning requests were received by the system than the user configured.
MAC limit (limit) exceeded at interface-name: dropping the packet
Learning request was dropped because the number of MAC addresses learned on an interface has reached the user configured limit.
Error: An error occurred
alert
More learning requests were received by the system than the user configured.
MAC limit (limit) exceeded at interface-name
Number of MAC addresses learned on an interface has exceeded the user configured limit.
Error: An error occurred
alert
More learning requests were received by the system than the user configured.
MAC move limit (limit) exceeded at vlan-name; shutting down interface interface-name
Data traffic on interface was halted because the number of times that a MAC addresses moved to a different interface exceeded the user-configured limit.
Error: An error occurred
alert
A MAC address moved to a different interface more times per second than the user configured.
MAC move limit (limit) exceeded at vlan-name; dropping the packet on interface interface-name
Learning request was dropped because the number of times a MAC address moved to a different interface exceeded the user-configured limit.
Error: An error occurred
alert
A MAC address moved to a different interface more times per second than the user configured.
MAC move limit (limit) exceeded at vlan-name
The number of times that a MAC address moved to a different interface within a VLAN exceeded the user-configured limit.
Error: An error occurred
alert
A MAC address moved to a different interface more times per second than the user configured.
Mirror version on other Routing Engine is incompatible: error-message
The indicated error occurred when the layer2 control protocol process (l2cpd) tried to establish the nonstop routing mirror connection between the master and standby Routing Engines.
Error: An error occurred
warning
The master and standby Routing Engines are running incompatable versions of the JUNOS software.
Update the JUNOS software on the master Routing Engine, standby Routing Engine, or both, so that they are running compatible versions.
Mirror versions on Routing Engines are incompatible: mastermaster-is-local has version master-version, standbystandby-is-local has version standby-version
While trying to establish the nonstop routing mirror connection between the master and standby Routing Engines, the layer2 control protocol process (l2cpd) determined that the version of the nonstop routing mirror software on the Routing Engines did not match.
Error: An error occurred
warning
The master and standby Routing Engines are running incompatable versions of the JUNOS software.
Update the JUNOS software on the master Routing Engine, standby Routing Engine, or both, so that they are running compatible versions.
ESWD: error-message Module shutdown failed
While deleting the instance of logical-switch, RST/MST Module shutdown failed
Error: An error occurred
error
Read error on pipe from ppmd: reason (error-message)
The ethernet bridging process (eswd) could not read a message available on the read pipe from the periodic packet management process (ppmd).
Error: An error occurred
error
Contact your technical support representative.
function-name: write error on pipe to ppmd (error-message)
The ethernet bridging process (eswd) could not write a message on the pipe to the periodic packet management process (ppmd).
Error: An error occurred
error
Contact your technical support representative.
reason: error-message
A system call made by enterprise switching process (eswd) failed.
Error: An error occurred
error
It is possible that the kernel lacked the resources to fulfill the request.
