"ethoipSocketTask: ethoipRecvPkt returned error" is the generic message related to Mobility and this is followed by various similar mobilities messages as well.. are we able to see any??

Hi,

From the below 2 outputs..

MM-3-INVALID_PKT_RECVD: Received an invalid packet from 172.30.77.10. Source member:0.0.0.0. source 
member unknown.

MM-3-INVALID_PKT_RECVD: Received an invalid packet from 172.30.77.12. Source member:0.0.0.0. source 
member unknown.

This message is almost always due to incorrect mobility group configuration. My guess is that 172.30.77.10 
and 172.30.77.12 are other  controllers in your environment. If these controllers should NOT be in a mobility 
group with the controller in question, remove the associated mobility group entries in these other controllers.
Otherwise, verify that  all controllers are added with the correct mac addresses to prevent  receiving "member 
unknown" errors.

here is the link to configure the mobility..

lemme know if this answered your question..

For future reference, I have also seen this error when the Mobility Domain name was different than the Mobility Group name. From my understanding, they don't have to be the same, but when I mirrored the two names, I stopped getting this error message.
