Chapter 3 Message and Recovery Proced ures
ACLMGR Messages
Error Message ACLMGR-3-MAXRECURSION: Too many ([dec]) levels of recursion while
merging ACLs (code [dec]).
Explanation The configuration is too complicated for the platform-specific ACL merge code to
support. The most likely cause is too many separate access lists in a single VLAN map or policy
map. The first [dec] is the number of levels of recursion. The second [dec] is an internal code number
of the merge stage that encountered the problem.
Recommended Action Reduce the number of IP or MAC access lists (considered separately) in any
one VLAN or policy map to fewer than the number of levels report ed by this log message.
Error Message ACLMGR-3-MERGEFAIL: [chars] ACL merge error [dec] ([chars]) on [chars]
label [dec].
Explanation The ACL manager was unable to complete the merge of the configured features into a
form suitable for loading into the hardware. Packets potentially affected by this feature will be sent
to the CPU for processing instead. The most likely cause is specifying an ACL that is too large or
too complex for the system. The first [chars] is the ACL-type error (ip or mac), the first [dec] is the
error code, the second [chars] is the message string for t he preceding error code, the second [dec] is
the label number, and the third [chars] is either input or output.
Recommended Action Specify a smaller and less complicated configuration.
Error Message ACLMGR-3-NOLABEL: Cannot allocate [chars] label for interface [chars].
Explanation The ACL manager was unable to allocate a label for the features on this interface. This
means that the hardware cannot be programmed to implement the features, and packets fo r this
interface will be filtered in software. There is a limit of 256 labels per direction. The first [chars] is
the direction (input or output); the second [chars] is the interface name.
Recommended Action Use a simpler configuration. Use the same ACLs on multiple interfaces, if
possible.
Error Message ACLMGR-3-OUTTTABLE: Not in truth table: RACL [dec] VLMAP [dec].
Explanation An unrecoverable software error occurred while tryin g to merge the configured output
features. [dec] are internal action codes.
Recommended Action Copy the message exactly as it appears on the console or in the system log.
Research and attempt to resolve the error by using the Output Interpreter. Enter the show
running-config user EXEC command to gather data that might help identify the nature of the error.
Use the Bug Toolkit to look for similar reported problems. If you still require assistance, open a case
with the TAC, or contact your Cisco technical support representative, and provide the representative
with the gathered information. For more information about these online tools and about contacting
Cisco, see the “Error Message Traceback Reports” section on page 2-7.
