Fabric OS 5.0.0 diagnostics and system error messages reference guide 197
Severity
WARNING
FW-1351
Message
Probable cause
The number of invalid signatures changed from a value outside the acceptable range to a value within
the acceptable range.
Invalid-signature violations indicate that a packet with an invalid signature was received from the primary
fabric configuration server (FCS).
When the primary FCS downloads a new configuration to the other switches in the fabric, the packet is
signed using the private key of the primary FCS. The receiving switch has to verify this signature with the
public key of the primary FCS switch. If verification fails, the receiving switch rejects the packet. This
counter keeps track of the number of packets received with invalid signatures.
Recommended action
No action is required.
Severity
INFO
FW-1352
Message
Probable cause
The number of invalid certificates changed. A packet with an invalid certificate was received from the
primary fabric configuration server (FCS).
Before a new primary FCS switch sends any configuration data to any switch in the fabric, it first sends its
certificate to all the switches in the fabric. The receiving switch has to verify that the sender is the primary
FCS switch and its certificate is signed by the Root certificate authority (CA) recognized by the receiving
switch. This counter keeps track of the number of packets received with invalid certificates.
Recommended action
