Description: This attribute counts the number of packets received on this link with an incorrect Control Field.

What is mscPppLnkBadControls?

Counts packets received on this link with an incorrect HDLC Control field; a rapidly rising count, like bad-address errors, suggests a line-quality problem or a non-PPP protocol arriving from the remote end. The counter wraps to 0 after reaching its maximum.
