Description: The number of received packets with bad MAC addresses information for the port.
What is cvsVSLPortRxBadMacAddressPkts?
This Counter32 counts VSL packets received that carried bad MAC address information. Since the VSL protocol uses MAC address data to identify the peer switch and its ports, packets with bad MAC information can indicate hardware corruption or a cabling mismatch on the link. An admin would correlate an increase here with cvsVSLLinkPeerInterface to verify the VSL is actually connected to the intended peer port.
