Hello,

I am sending 92 bytes length packet to my laptop. On laptop wireshark log i am seeing some good packets (with lenght 92 ) and some malformed packet saying " [Malformed Packet: LLDP: length of contained item exceeds length of containing item] "?

what could be the reason? in tcpdump similar observation is not there .. why so?

What port is used for both source and destination? It's likely that the LLDP dissector is inadvertently trying to dissect the traffic.
