Am testing some equipment and on occasion see some void
frames with SRC=DST=0.  To my understanding this is a 
bogus frame.  Also, from what I understand, void frames 
have data length of zero whereas these particular voids
have varying sizes - up to max fddi length.  Any clue as
to how I can track down who is doing this (other than
disconnecting stations one-by-one) ?
