This chapter describes Routing Information Protocol (RIP) messages. For information on message content and how to use the message, refer to the Introduction.
| RIP.001 |
Level: UE-ERROR
Short Syntax: RIP.001 bd ver version_number frm hst source_IP_address
Long Syntax: RIP.001 bad version version_number received from host source_IP_address
Description: The version field in the RIP header did not match the current version.
Cause: This is probably caused by an error in the source host.
Action: Contact the manufacturer of the source host and report the problem.
| RIP.002 |
Level: U-TRACE
Short Syntax: RIP.002 rq frm source_IP_address
Long Syntax: RIP.002 request received from host source_IP_address
Description: A RIP routing table request was received from another host. A routing table update will be sent to it.
| RIP.003 |
Level: U-INFO
Short Syntax: RIP.003 trc on tracing_file frm source_IP_address
Long Syntax: RIP.003 trace on to tracing_file received from host source_IP_address
Description: A request from a host to turn RIP tracing on to a given log file was received. The router ignores this request.
| RIP.004 |
Level: U-INFO
Short Syntax: RIP.004 trc off frm source_IP_address
Long Syntax: RIP.004 trace off received from host source_IP_address
Description: A request from a host to turn RIP tracing off was received. The router ignores this request.
| RIP.005 |
Level: C-TRACE
Short Syntax: RIP.005 rsp frm source_IP_address
Long Syntax: RIP.005 response received from host source_IP_address
Description: A RIP routing table update was received. Note that it may take more than one response packet to transmit the entire routing table, especially if the routing table is large.
| RIP.006 |
Level: UE-ERROR
Short Syntax: RIP.006 bd cmd command_code frm source_IP_address
Long Syntax: RIP.006 bad command code command_code received from host source_IP_address
Description: A RIP message was received with an unrecognized command code.
Cause: This is probably caused by an error or out of date software in the source host.
Action: Contact the manufacturer of the source host and report the problem.
| RIP.007 |
Level: UE-ERROR
Short Syntax: RIP.007 rsp frm off nt source_IP_address
Long Syntax: RIP.007 response received from off network host source_IP_address
Description: A RIP routing update response was received from a machine which was not directly attached to the network the response came in on. The packet is discarded.
Cause: Since normal RIP software is generally written to send data only to connected nets, this is probably indicative of a hostile event.
Action: Examine audit trails and other information to determine the original source host.
| RIP.009 |
Level: U-TRACE
Short Syntax: RIP.009 dyn rt to destination_IP_network frm next_hop_IP_address dis
Long Syntax: RIP.009 dynamic route to destination_IP_network from next_hop_IP_address disallowed
Description: A dynamic route was received but is being ignored because the configuration of RIP receive policy for the interface disallows acceptance of this route.
| RIP.010 |
Level: U-INFO
Short Syntax: RIP.010 nt destination_IP_address unrch via next_hop_IP_address, del
Long Syntax: RIP.010 network destination_IP_address now unreachable via router next_hop_IP_address, deleted
Description: An incoming RIP update from the router that was previously listed as the next hop to the destination network has announced that the destination is unreachable (i.e. at metric 'infinity'). The RIP route to that destination is being deleted.
| RIP.011 |
Level: U-INFO
Short Syntax: RIP.011 updt nt destination_IP_network hps metric via next_hop_IP_address
Long Syntax: RIP.011 update route to net destination_IP_network at metric metric hops via router next_hop_IP_address
Description: A new (better) route to the given destination has been learned via RIP and has been installed.
| RIP.012 |
Level: C-TRACE
Short Syntax: RIP.012 snd rqst source_IP_address
Long Syntax: RIP.012 send request from address source_IP_address
Description: The router is sending a RIP request from each of the addresses associated with an interface which has just come up.
| RIP.013 |
Level: C-TRACE
Short Syntax: RIP.013 snd brd to destination_IP_address packet_count pkts number_of_routes rtes
Long Syntax: RIP.013 sending broadcast response to address destination_IP_address in packet_count packets with number_of_routes routes
Description: The router is sending a normal RIP broadcast update (triggered either by a timer or a change in the routing table) to the specified address.
| RIP.014 |
Level: C-INFO
Short Syntax: RIP.014 snd to destination_IP_address packet_count pkts number_of_routes rtes
Long Syntax: RIP.014 sending response to address destination_IP_address in packet_count packets with number_of_routes routes
Description: The router is sending a RIP update (triggered by a request from another host) to the specified address.
| RIP.015 |
Level: CI-ERROR
Short Syntax: RIP.015 cnt all pkt
Long Syntax: RIP.015 cannot allocate packet for transmission
Description: When RIP went to allocate a packet for transmission (either for a request or reply), none was available.
| RIP.016 |
Level: C-TRACE
Short Syntax: RIP.016 snd pkt destination_IP_address
Long Syntax: RIP.016 sending packet to destination_IP_address
Description: A RIP packet (either a routing table update, or when an interface first comes up, a request) was sent.
| RIP.017 |
Level: UI-ERROR
Short Syntax: RIP.017 err output_error_code sndng pkt nt network
Long Syntax: RIP.017 error code output_error_code when sending packet out net network
Description: An outgoing reply packet was dropped as the result of some problem in the router.
Cause: There are many potential causes of this problem, such as an overloaded output queue, a down network, etc.
Action: Consult logging output from the relevant network subsystem for more information.
| RIP.018 |
Level: U-INFO
Short Syntax: RIP.018 nt rt to destination_IP_address tmd out
Long Syntax: RIP.018 network route to destination_IP_address timed out
Description: A route to a destination via some other router in the routing database has not been heard from for a while and is now being marked as unreachable.
| RIP.019 |
Level: U-INFO
Short Syntax: RIP.019 nt rt to destination_IP_address del
Long Syntax: RIP.019 network route to destination_IP_address deleted
Description: A route to a destination via some other router in the routing database has not been heard from for a while, has been marked unreachable, and is now being deleted.
| Panic ripudperr |
Short Syntax: rip udp port not avail
Description: Another application registered previously with rip's UDP port.
Action: Contact customer service.
| RIP.020 |
Level: U-INFO
Short Syntax: RIP.020 ver version_number frm hst source_IP_address intf source_IP_interface
Long Syntax: RIP.020 Mismatch version version_number received from host source_IP_address on interface source_IP_interface
Description: The version field in the RIP header did not match the current version on the receive interface..
Cause: This is probably caused by a configuration error in the source host.
Action: Correct the configuration in the source host.
| RIP.021 |
Level: UE-ERROR
Short Syntax: RIP.021 bd auth frm hst source_IP_address intf source_IP_interface
Long Syntax: RIP.021 Authentication error received from host source_IP_address on interface source_IP_interface
Description: The packet is reject due to authentication err caused either by invalid authentication info or authentication is not enable.
Cause: This is probably caused by a misconfiguration.
Action: Correct the configuration.
| RIP.022 |
Level: C-TRACE
Short Syntax: RIP.022 snd RIP2 to destination_IP_address from source_IP_address packet_count pkts number_of_routes rtes
Long Syntax: RIP.022 sending RIP2 response to address destination_IP_address from source_IP_address in packet_count packets with number_of_routes routes
Description: The router is sending a normal RIP2 update (triggered either by a timer or a change in the routing table) to the specified address.
