+## Authentication Handshake
+
+:::note
+Some drivers may still use the legacy `hello` command to complete a handshake.
+:::
+
+If you encounter any issues while authenticating with FerretDB, try setting the Stable API version to V1 on the client as this may prevent legacy commands from being used.
+Please refer to your specific driver documentation on how to set this field.

+If this does not resolve your issue please file a bug report [here](https://github.com/FerretDB/FerretDB/issues/new?assignees=ferretdb-bot&labels=code%2Fbug%2Cnot+ready&projects=&template=bug.yml).
