Wireshark · Wireshark-users: Re: [Wireshark-users] FC Malformed packets

[<Tim.Poth@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I believe I read an article with a similar issue involving a router, it was ether a bug or bad ram (more I think about it the more I think it was bad ram)

Does a MAC address show up in the capture, might give you a direction on what device to go smack.

Thanks

Actually, I have seen that. It was a problem the device I was capturing. It used a template to build the IP packet and the template wasn't getting filled in properly.

Hello

Anyone ever see this before. Nearly 25 percent of all packets that I capture from my switches says it is:

 FC malformed packet

There is no source addr or dest addr. All zeros
