Description: The number of PIM messages with a length too short to contain a common PIM header that have been received by this DC-PIM Neighbor Manager entity.

What is rlPimNmEntStatsNumRecvBadLength?

This read-only counter counts PIM messages received by this DC-PIM Neighbor Manager entity that were too short to even contain a valid common PIM header. An admin can treat increases here as a sign of packet truncation or corruption on the wire, distinct from a checksum failure. For example, this counter rising during a period of high link errors would corroborate a cabling or MTU-fragmentation problem affecting PIM control traffic.
