This read-only counter tracks frames that could not be transmitted through this port because they exceeded the maximum size allowed on the attached 802.3 network (1526 bytes including preamble). An admin treats a nonzero bdgPortDisErr count as a sign of oversized or malformed frames arriving from a misconfigured device, such as one sending frames larger than standard Ethernet allows. For example, a rising bdgPortDisErr count after connecting a new device to that segment would lead the admin to check whether that device is sending jumbo frames the bridge can't handle.
