Invalid Hello received from port , RBridge = , Remote

Message Type
LOG
Severity
ERROR
Probable Cause
Indicates that the hello (HLO) message received was invalid and the frame was dropped. The Brocade
switch will not accept fabric shortest path first (FSPF) frames from the remote switch.
The switch has received an invalid HLO because either the RBridge or port number in the HLO message
has an invalid value. This error can only occur when the Brocade switch is connected to a switch from
another manufacturer.
Recommended
Action
The HLO message of the remote switch must be compatible with the value specified in the FSPF
protocol. Refer to the documentation for the other manufacturer's switch to change this value.
