log error IPFIX switch stack

JHONN_WILLIAM_B — Wed, 24 Feb 2016 13:13:00 GMT

I have two Summit X460 switches in stack, IPFIX configured. But I constantly gives the following event:

02/24/2016 01:00:12.27 Slot-1: IPFIX: Invalid unit/port from aspenGetPortSlotFromUnitPort

02/24/2016 00:59:12.24 Slot-1: IPFIX: Invalid unit/port from aspenGetPortSlotFromUnitPort

I have configured the following for IPFIX:

This error message is generated when the reported hardware port does not map to a front-panel port. IPFIX should only be turned on using the front-panel ports. From the configuration, I see you have port 1:53 enabled for IPFIX, on the XGM module. aspenGetPortSlotFromUnitPort is a part of the Port Mapper and is used to translate from hardware port numbering to front-panel numbering.

Can you disable IPFIX on any ports that are not front-facing to see if the error is still generating?

Hi Rebecca, thanks for the reply. I followed your advice and events are no longer displayed.

Then you can not enable IPFIX in the port 1:53?

Hi Jhonn,

When enabling IPFIX on a port, a check is performed to ensure that the port being enabled has hardware support for IPFIX.

If the port does not support IPFIX, an error message similar to the following is displayed when trying to enable IPFIX on a port:
Error: IPFIX is not supported by hardware on port :Do you get this error message after enabling IPFIX on that particular port?

To check to ensure that the port being enabled has hardware support for IPFIX, use the below command.

"Enable ip-fix ports "

If the port does not support IPFIX, an error message is displayed like the one Henrique posted.
