What is cvTotalEncapsFailedDrops?

This counter tracks VINES packets dropped because the router couldn't encapsulate them for the outgoing interface's media type. An admin cares because this points to a Layer 2 framing or media incompatibility on the egress interface rather than a routing problem, since the route was found but the frame couldn't be built. For example, a jump in this counter after changing an interface's encapsulation setting from ARPA to SNAP would flag a mismatch that needs correcting.
