PRIMARY
CAUSE
Unable to connect to the remote host.

Verify the remote host is reachable. Run the
show billing-acct-addr

Protocol (FTP), re-enter the password via the
change billing-acct-addr
command. If user-name is
correct and the TransferType dataword shows Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP), verify that secure
shell (SSH) keys have been pre-configured for the user-name on both the BTS 10200 and the remote
host.

Check the Error dataword to see if it gives an indication of the kind of error that occurred. It could be
a file-system error on the remote host, or a communication failure between the BTS 10200 and the
remote host.
