Note The Affected Parties window occasionally displays entries that start with the word Misconfigured.
Entries that start with Misconfigured indicate that the flow has stopped unexp ectedly between th e source
and destination points. An unexpected termination point can be a routing en tity, bridge, or VC switching
entity. The significant aspects of Misconfigured entries are:
- Because the link does not terminate as expected, the link is not actually impacted.
- An error might exist in the configuration or status of the termination points.
We recommend that you check the configuration and status of the affected termination points.
