here is an excerpt from the following
URL:http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/104/19.html#1
Mismatched Area ID
%OSPF-4-ERRRCV: Received invalid packet: mismatch area ID, from backbone
area must be virtual-link but not found from 170.170.3.3,
Ethernet0
The router generating this message received an invalid OSPF packet on
Ethernet 0 from neighbor 170.170.3.3. The packet is invalid because its area
ID is area 0 (the backbone area). This implies that the receiving router's
Ethernet 0 interface is not in area 0. Note that the neighboring router,
which has its interface in area 0, won't display this message in its console
logs. Only the router whose interface is in an area other than area 0
generates the error message.
