Answer / loyd

When used in reference to networks, a runt is a packet that
is too small to traverse the network. Network protocols
such as Ethernet often require that packets be a minimum
number of bytes in order to travel the network. Runts are

or can result from faulty hardware that is forming the
packets or from corrupted data being sent across the
network.
