Description: The length of the integrity check value (ICV) field.

What is secyCipherSuiteICVLength?

This object specifies the length in octets of the Integrity Check Value field used in 802.1AE secure channel encryption (typically 8 to 16 bytes). The ICV length affects both security strength and frame overhead in MAC Security (MACsec) configurations. An operator or security administrator sets this when configuring encryption parameters to balance protection level against bandwidth consumption.
