into the blocking state and marked as root-guard inconsistent. The first [chars] is the root-guard state
(enable or disable), the second [chars] is the interface, and the third [chars] is the spanning-tree
instance.
Recommended Action Verify that this is the desired configuration for the listed interface. Correct it if
it is not the desired configuration.
Error Message SPANTREE-2-ROOTGUARD_UNBLOCK: Root guard unblocking port [chars] on
[chars].
Explanation
The listed interface is no longer receiving BPDUs advertising a superior root bridge
(lower bridge ID, lower path cost, and so forth). The root-guard inconsistency is cleared for the
interface, and the blocking state is removed from the interface. The first [chars] is the port name,
and the second [chars] is the spanning-tree mode displayed in show spanning-tree privileged EXEC
command.
Recommended Action No action is required.
Error Message SPANTREE-2-UNBLOCK_CONSIST_PORT: Unblocking [chars] on [chars]. Port
consistency restored.
Explanation
The port VLAN ID or port type inconsistencies have been resolved, and spanning tree
will unblock the listed interface of the listed spanning-tree instance. The first [chars] is the interface,
and the second [chars] is the spanning-tree instance.
Recommended Action No action is required.
Error Message SPANTREE-3-BAD_PORTNUM_SIZE: Rejected an attempt to set the port
number field size to [dec] bits (valid range is [dec] to [dec] bits).
Explanation
An error occurred in the platform-specific code that caused it to request more or less
bits than are possible. The first [dec] is the number of bits for the port number, and the second and
third [dec] describe the valid range.
Recommended Action Copy the message exactly as it appears on the console or in the system log.
Research and attempt to resolve the error by using the Output Interpreter. Use the Bug Toolkit to
look for similar reported problems. If you still need assistance, open a case with the TAC, or provide
your Cisco technical support representative with your information. For more information about these
