What is rxFilterIllegalMACDrops?

A Counter of packets dropped because their source MAC address was illegal -- either all-zero or a broadcast address, neither of which is valid as a source. Frames like this typically indicate a malformed or malicious packet rather than a normal device, so a nonzero count is worth investigating.
