SYMPTOMS
A connection configured to connect to a host with the Digi Sync/570I goes active, but then fails. The following error is logged in the Application Event Log:

Event ID: 23

Connection Failure

Connection =

Link Service =

Outage Code =002C

Invalid SDLC command received. The SDLC driver has reported that an invalid SDLC command has been received. Either an SDLC I-frame was received out of sequence, an unrecognized command was received, or the SDLC frame exceeded the maximum frame size that the SDLC link service can support.



CAUSE
The old driver needed modification to protect critical regions of code.



RESOLUTION
This problem can be resolved by installing the latest driver for the Digi Sync/570I SDLC card. The current driver is version 3.3.0, and it is available for downloading from Digi's FTP site. The driver fixes problems with data corruption as well as line outages. Follow the steps below to download the new driver:

 Go to the following URL on the Digi Web site:

ftp://ftp.dgii.com/drivers/innt/released/sync

 Download the following file:

510128D.exe

510128D.exe is a self extracting zip of the installation disk.



MORE INFORMATION
The following DLC trace has been edited to show the data flowing to and from LU 09 up to the Event 23 outage.

NOTE: The same frame (018A) is sent twice, causing a sequencing problem.
