EZZ7955I
BAD LENGTH IPV6 LINK STATE ADVERTISEMENT RECEIVED FROM neighbor

Explanation

A Link State Update packet was received from the specified neighbor. OMPROUTE detected one of the following problems in the link state advertisements (LSAs) contained in the packet:
  • The sum of the length values specified in the headers of the LSAs contained in the packet exceeds the length value specified in the OSPF header of the packet.
  • An LSA header length field value is smaller than the length of the LSA header.
  • The number of entries in an LSA does not correlate with the LSA header length field value. For example, an incorrect number of prefix values in a Link LSA or Intra-Area Prefix LSA.
  • The address prefix in an LSA that contains address prefixes does not correlate with the address prefix length field value.

In the message text:

neighbor     The router ID of the neighboring router.

System action
