| Severity | Error |
| Description | Module in slot slot experienced a data channel communication failure, data channel is DOWN. |
| Explanation | This message indicates that a data channel communication failure occurred and the system was unable to forward traffic to the 4GE SSM. This failure triggers a failover when it occurs on the active appliance in a failover pair. It also results in the configured fail open or fail closed policy being enforced on traffic that would normally be sent to the 4GE SSM. This message is generated whenever there is a communication problem over the security appliance dataplane between the system module and the 4GE SSM. This can be caused when the 4GE SSM stops, resets, or is removed. slot—The slot in which the failure occurred |
| User Action | Recommended Action If this is not the result of the 4GE SSM reloading or resetting and a corresponding message 5-505010 is not seen after the 4GE SSM returns to an UP state, the module may need to be reset using the hw-module module 1 reset command. |
