[EFM-OAM] Question on invalid length/type field test




Hi,

57.5.3.2 deals with errored frames.  One of the listed criteria (from (d))
is a "frame containing an invalid Length/Type field".  I presume this refers
to the check in the RemovePad function in 4.2.9.  That is, I presume that
this really means a "frame whose received length does not match the length
recorded in the Length/Type field (if any)".

Is this interpretation correct?  If so, I think a change in wording would be
in order to make it clear that the check is not applicable in the case of a
"Type" field.  I could not find a comment on this point in the recently
posted comment list.

Regards,
