FW-1337
Message <timestamp>, [FW-1337], <sequence-number>,, INFO, <system-name>, <Label>, is
below low boundary(High=<High value>, Low=<Low value>). Current value is <Value>
<Unit>.
Probable Cause Indicates that the number of device cable connection (DCC) violations has fallen below the low
boundary. DCC violations indicate that an unauthorized device tried to join the fabric. The
DCC_POLICY allows for the specification of rules for binding device ports (typically host bus adaptor
(HBA) ports) to specific switch ports. DCC policies ensure that whenever a device performs a fabric
login (FLOGI) request, the world-wide name (WWN) specified in the FLOGI is validated to be
connected to the authorized port. Enforcement for private loop devices not performing FLOGI is
done through the name server.
Recommended
Action
No action is required.
Severity INFO

Probable Cause Indicates that the number of device cable connection (DCC) violations has risen above the high
boundary. DCC violations indicate that an unauthorized device tried to join the fabric. The
DCC_POLICY allows for the specification of rules for binding device ports (typically host bus adaptor
(HBA) ports) to specific switch ports. DCC policies ensure that whenever a device performs a fabric
login (FLOGI) request that the world-wide name ((WWN) specified in the FLOGI is validated to be
connected to the authorized port. Enforcement for private loop devices not performing FLOGI is
done through the name server.
Recommended
Action
Run the errShow command to determine the device WWN, switch WWN, and switch port.
