It is required, since the an ethernet frame must be at least of 64 bytes. The last 4 bytes are frame check sequence, so there must be 60 bytes. The IPv4 packet is 44 bytes, plus 6 bytes source, 6 bytes dest, 2 bytes upper layer information makes 58 bytes. Therefore 2 bytes is appended. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethernet_frame So the packet looks correct to me. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
