Protocol Initialization failure

Protocol_Initialization_failure_1_1_Rule (Rule)

Knowledge Base article:

Management Pack

Summary

Routing Information Protocol version 2 (RIPv2) encountered an error during initialization.

 

Causes

The most common reasons for this error are:

1.     The protocol initialization failed because there are not enough available system resources ed. The system could be running in low memory.

2.     The protocol received a request to start when it is already started.

3.     The protocol failed to register with Route Table Manager (RTM). The most common reason for this error is that registry information could be corrupt or not found.

 

Resolutions

1.     If the server is low on memory, take appropriate action to increase the available memory. See Help and Support Center for information on low memory.

2.     Stop and restart the Routing and Remote Access service.

3.     If the problem persists, you might need to repair or reinstall the Windows operating system.
