Error Message DTP-4-TMRERR:An internal timer error occurred when trunking on 
interface [char]
Explanation
Occasionally a timer used by the trunking protocol expires unexpectedly. This problem 
is corrected internally.
Recommended Action This problem has no long-term ramifications. However, if further trunking 
problems persist, you should reload the device.
Error Message DTP-4-UNKN_ERR:An unknown operational error occurred
Explanation
The system is unable to negotiate trunks because an internal operation generated an 
error that the protocol (DTP, in this case) did not expect to handle.
Recommended Action Reload the device.
