Description: The number of packets dropped because of a bad buffer length.

What is cdmipDroppedPacketsBadBufferLength?

This counts packets dropped because of a bad buffer length. This points at a low-level framing or memory-handling mismatch, where the actual data received does not match the length the packet's own header claims, which is a more unusual failure mode than routing or filtering drops and often suggests either corrupted length fields or an implementation-level bug rather than a normal network condition. A consistently nonzero count here, especially if isolated to traffic from one specific type of source device, would be worth escalating as a potential interoperability or firmware bug rather than something fixable through routine network configuration.

Examples
