IF you are getting the error message from the terminal pass-through overlay window in OTM, then yes - that's coming from the switch. IF it's coming from any other window (Station Administration would be the most likely) then I don't know for sure where that would get it's info. Unfortunately, I don't know much about OTM as I rarely use it but I know there are folks here who can help. Keep those beers cold - I'm sure someone will earn 'em. ;o)
