ERROR

This message occurs when the number of connection requests for a socket reaches the maximum number. These connection requests include partially completed connections and connections that are ready to be accepted.

This event can also be caused by a denial-of-service attack or an overloaded system.

Try turning off and back on the LIF on which the last connection was received. If the issue remains after correcting any network misconfigurations, contact NetApp technical support.
