Examples of ATM Error Messages

Error Message

AIP_love_note(ATM2/0): asr=0xaaaa

Explanation Received a love note from the ACIP. Love notes are messages that the ACIP passes to the RSP to indicate an action or event has taken place. For example, the ACIP signals the RSP with a love note when the ACIP completes a VC setup/teardown request. Another love note signals to the RSP that CD sense has changed. The ASR is a bit mask that deﬁnes the actions that might have taken place. The ASR values are different for all the interfaces. Of the following bit mask values, only 0x4000, which singles CD state changes, is consistent between the different interfaces:

•

0x8000—IP panic

0x4000—CD state change

0x200—Command to ACIP has completed

0x00n0—Completion status of a command (0... 9) 0 is OK; a value of >0 indicates failure

All other values of the ASR are meaningless and discarded. The love note messages only show up if debug atm event is turned on.
