900 MESSAGE COULD NOT BUILD PATH REPORT FOR CONFIGURATION
FILE.
CAUSE An internal error occurred while building the
local node's path report to place in the
configuration file.
ACTION RESTORE a backup copy of NMCONFIG.PUB.SYS from
tape and try to validate the Network Transport
again. If this fails, the configuration file is
corrupt. See <169>Submitting an SR<170> in
appendix A of this manual.
901 MESSAGE COULD NOT ADD PATH REPORT TO CONFIGURATION FILE.
CAUSE An internal error occurred while adding the
local node's path report to the configuration
file.
ACTION RESTORE a backup copy of NMCONFIG.PUB.SYS from
tape and try to validate the Network Transport

corrupt. See <169>Submitting an SR<170> in
appendix A of this manual.
1004 MESSAGE NO STORE AND FORWARD BUFFERS CONFIGURED.
CAUSE
1. The specified router network has more
than one link configured, but no store
and forward buffers have been configured
in the NETXPORT.NI.NIname.PROTOCOL.IP
screen. It will not be possible to send
inbound packets from one link out to
another link without any store and
forward buffers.
2. If this condition is not desired, use the
NMMGR utility to configure store and
forward buffers in the
NETXPORT.NI.NIname.PROTOCOL.IP screen,
and validate the Network Transport again.
ACTION
1. More than one non-loopback network is
configured, but no store and forward
buffers have been configured in the
NETXPORT.NI.NIname.PROTOCOL.IP screen.
It will not be possible to send inbound
packets from another network out on a
link on this network without any store
and forward buffers.
2. If this condition is not desired, use the
NMMGR utility to configure store and
forward buffers in the
NETXPORT.NI.NIname.PROTOCOL.IP screen,
and validate the Network Transport again.
1007 MESSAGE CONFIGURED T1 PARAMETER (!) IS THE RECOMMENDED
FORMULA VALUE (!).
CAUSE The T1 timer parameter configured is less than
the value recommended in the LAP-B specification
for the type of point to point link configured
in LINK.linkname.
ACTION Confirm that the configuration in this
LINK.linkname is correct. If any changes are
made, validate the Network Transport again.
1100 MESSAGE NETWORK DIRECTORY CONFIGURED BUT NOT FOUND.
CAUSE The network directory is configured as part of
the search path in the NETXPORT.GLOBAL screen,
but no NSDIR.NET.SYS file exists.
ACTION Prior to completing the current configuration
activity, the network directory NSDIR.NET.SYS
should be created, or the search path in the
NETXPORT.GLOBAL screen should be modified to not
include the network directory.
1101 MESSAGE ANOTHER LAP-B LINK HAS THIS SAME PHYSICAL PATH.
CAUSE Another LAP-B link in the configuration file is
configured for the same physical path as the
specified LAP-B link.
ACTION This is not a problem if one of the LAP-B links
configured for this path is not activated.
However, if a LAP-B link is brought up while
another such link is active at that physical
path, an error will result during link startup.
1102 MESSAGE X.25 INACTIVITY TIMER IS LESS THAN OR EQUAL TO
TCP CONNECTION ASSURANCE TIMER.
CAUSE The X.25 timer is set too low.
ACTION Hewlett-Packard recommends that the X.25
Inactivity timer be configured with a value
greater than that of the TCP Connection
Assurance timer to avoid unnecessary closing and
opening of the X.25 virtual circuit. For
optimum performance, configure the X.25
Inactivity timer (or the TCP Connection
Assurance timer) so that the X.25 timer has a
greater value than the TCP timer.
1103 MESSAGE SVCPATH HAS NO X.25 ADDRESS - THIS IS VALID ONLY
FOR DDN.
CAUSE At least one SVCPATH entry does not have an X.25
address key configured. This configuration will
work only if the link is connected to a DDN.
ACTION If the link is not connected to a DDN, make sure
all SVCPATH entries have an address key
configured under the path
NETXPORT.NI.NIname.PROTOCOL.X25.SVCPATH.
