Hi, This is normal for the moment. I remember seeing something about this somewhere but can't find it now. The general gist was that there wasn't actually a truncated packet received, it is some effect created during the interface listening process I think. I cannot remember any further detail than that. if you see this at some other time than startup, then you should become concerned.
