The following error may occur in the event log when a logical link
connection (LLC) entity receives an invalid data unit:
Nbf received an unexpected FRMR packet from a remote computer.
FRMR is the Frame Reject frame sent by the NetBEUI Frames (NBF) LLC
layer when one of the following conditions causes a data unit to
become invalid:
- Invalid sequence number
- Invalid presence of an information field
- Maximum allowable length for an LLC data unit is exceeded
These errors cannot be corrected by retransmission. In response to the
FRMR frame, the workstation sends a Disconnect (DISC) command to
terminate the link connection. The workstation may then reestablish
the connection.
