AUTH-1039
Message
Neighboring switch has conflicting authentication policy: Port
disabled.
Message Type
LOG
Severity
ERROR
Probable Cause
Indicates that the neighboring switch has a conflicting authentication policy enabled. The E_Port has
been disabled because the neighboring switch has rejected the authentication negotiation and the local
switch has a strict switch authentication policy.
Recommended
Action
Correct the switch policy configuration on either of the switches using the fcsp auth command, and then
enable the port using the no shutdown command.
AUTH-1040
Message
Reject authentication on port , because switch authentication policy
is set to OFF.
Message Type
LOG
Severity
INFO
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 port will be disabled due to conflicting
configuration settings. Otherwise, the E_Port will form without authentication.
Recommended
Action
If the port is disabled, correct the switch policy configuration on either of the switches using the fcsp auth
command, and then enable the port on neighboring switch using the no shutdown command. If the
E_Port has formed, no action is required.
AUTH-1041
Message
Port has been disabled, because an authentication-reject was
received with code '' and explanation ''.
Message Type
LOG
Severity
ERROR
Probable Cause
Indicates that the specified port has been disabled because it received an authentication-reject response
from the connected switch or device. The error may indicate that an invalid entity tried to connect to the
switch.
Recommended
Action
Check the connection port for a possible security attack.
Check the shared secrets using the show fcsp auth-secret dh-chap command and reinitialize
authentication using the shutdown and no shutdown commands or the chassis disable and chassis
disable commands.
If the message persists, execute the copy support command and contact your switch service provider.
