ONTAP Error Response Codes

Error Code Description

66257099

Only one protocol can be specified.

66257100

Only one local port can be specified.

66257101

Only one remote port can be specified.

66257103

IPsec policy with same name already exists in this SVM.

66257107

The specified pre-shared key is not a valid hexadecimal string.

66257109

The specified pre-shared key is not a valid Base64 encoded binary string.

66257110

Failed to a create policy sequencing value.

66257111

The IPsec policy with action ESP TRANSPORT provides packet protection and requires a secret key for authentication.

66257112
