100VG-AnyLAN and 100Base-T Error Messages
SDI Driver Specific Status Values
ACTION: This error is informational only. The driver will retry the
connect. If the problem happens every time, first check that the cable is
good, is connected, and the hub is powered on. Try checking the hub
port configuration, or replacing the cable and/or adapter card.
MESSAGE: Link training failed.
172 ($AC) CAUSE: This is a generic error., reported if 100VG-AnyLAN link
training failed due to an unusual condition not covered by expected
error conditions. This might include LAN controller chip adapter
checks, timeouts, hardware failures, or power failures.
ACTION: This error is informational only. The driver will retry the
connect. If the problem happens every time, take a link trace while the
problem is occurring, then see Appendix A, “Submitting an SR.
MESSAGE: Timeout while awaiting link autonegotiation completion.
175 ($AF) CAUSE: The link appears to be connected, but the driver thinks it is
still waiting for it to connect.
ACTION: This error should not occur. If it happens frequently, see
Appendix A, “Submitting an SR.
MESSAGE: Driver bug prevents link training. File SR.
183 ($B7) CAUSE: During an attempt to establish the proper stack context within
which to begin 100VG-AnyLAN link training, the driver tried
repeatedly to run without the ISR underneath it, but failed to even
after 4 retries.
ACTION: Shut down the link and restart it. If the same problem still
occurs, see Appendix A, “Submitting an SR.
MESSAGE: Hub reports access is disallowed for this link.
184 ($B8) CAUSE: The driver received a training frame from the hub with the “no
access” bit set in the frame. The hub is disallowing access to this link.
ACTION: The driver discarded this frame and sent another. However, it
is likely the hub will report this in every frame. If this error is seen,
check the hub port configuration to make sure it is enabled and is not
set to an incompatible mode and/or frame format.
MESSAGE: Hub returned wrong station address in training frame.
185 ($B9) CAUSE: The link driver received a training frame from the
100VG-AnyLAN hub having nonzero data in the destination address
field. This hub is not compatible with your link driver.
ACTION: The driver discarded this frame and sent another. However, it
is likely the hub will report this in every frame. Check if the hub has
configuration settings or switches. Some hubs have a feature which
switches the hub to a mode where this problem does not occur.
Otherwise, contact your Hewlett-Packard Representative to see if
software patches are available to correct this problem.
