network error message help

[LeeMcCauslin]

my switch (Opt 61C with sig server and release 4.5) has been rolling these messages all night:

IOD365 Data send failed, retry timeout,
addr=192.168.142.206, sCount=3, rCount=0.

IOD370 192.168.142.206

IOD370 192.168.142.206

About 5 seconds between each message.

- but everything is working fine as far as I can tell. That IP address is the static IP on the nic in my machine that I run Optivity on (That is the card that connects the switch - 97% sure that is the elan but I will admit I get a bit confused on elan, tlan, clan, Mulan...the vendor usually takes care of that but I just want to make sure I have checked everything before calling them. I'm not sure what data it's trying to send - but as far as I can tell, everything works - my collection/costing/reports all ran at their scheduled time. Voicemail and all calls are up and running fine.

Network guys say nothing has changed as far as they know (but they always say that - lol)

clearly something has changed since this wasn't happening two days ago...

Have checked the network cables and nothing looks amiss but I may re-terminate the ends anyway just on GP. I have a cable tester I can throw on there but that just tells me continuity and not much else...same cable has been there under the floor for 4 years...

Well hmmmmmm - how's this for a kick in the pants? I just noticed a Windows Firewall window on the Optivity machine saying it was blocking something and asking me if I wanted to keep blocking it - so I said no - allow that program and now the error messages have stopped - haven't seen one in about ten minutes...

stupid windows.

Sounds like maybe the desktop/server folks pushed that firewall down the line. Funny how when asked they all say they didn't change anything.

 

[LeeMcCauslin]

lol - yeah, they are always doing things like that to me. I had to fight them with fisticuffs and threaten to with-hold doughnuts just to keep them from installing M$ updates on that machine.

I have a love hate relationship with my network folks. Love 'em when they can show me how something I don't understand works. Hate 'em when they make an afterhours change network wide, and stone cold lie when asked if changes were made. Guess its the same all over. You'd think they all learned that from the same school or something, lol
