Length (2 bytes)

Protocol: IPX IPX PCI

Field: length

Length: 2 bytes

Contents: length of IPX header and following data.

The length value indicates, how many bytes the IPX packet contains with a range between 30 bytes (minimum length = length of IPX header) and max. 576 bytes (IPX header plus data).

It may occur that the IPX length value is 1 byte less than the length value given with frame=ethernet_802.2 or frame=ethernet_snap. If this is the case, an odd number was rounded up by the LAN driver to an even number.
