Good question. The IBM 6611 does bridging for one thing. The other hint was that it was attempting to send an OSPF Hello on a serial interface. Does OSPF do that? How does it establish adjacency to a neighbor router on a WAN? On a point-to-point network, I figured it just knew who its neighbor was. On a non-broadcast, multiple-access network, such as Frame Relay, you normally configured the neighbor command. I've only seen the OSPF multicast Hellos on LANs, (but I can't afford a WAN Sniffer anymore! ;-) Gurus? Help? Thanks. Priscilla P.S. Anyone seeing this may be confused because you didn't include the original message. PLEASE, people, reply with the body of the message in the reply. We work in connectionless, stateless mode. How do you expect anyone to easily connect this to the discussion about a router failing to forward a packet on a PPP link to an IBM 6611.
