[c-nsp] Strange 6509 Error

This is generated by the CEF consistency checker code (specifically, 
checking the consistency of writes to the FIB SSRAM, which is the "result" 
memory for your h/w FIB prefixes, meaning, containing the RPF VLAN, ADJ 
pointer, & some other info).

This error is corrected by the software. Is this error happening regularly 
or you just saw it once this morning? It is not anything to worry about 
unless it happens regularly, in which case there could be a software bug, 
or a problem in the FIB TCAM memory.
