Hi all,
runts and giants can also occur on a ethernet segment
due to a bad NIC card on router/hub/switch/PC/Server.
In such a case the NIC card may not be capable of
forming an Ethernet frame within the 64k-1518k range
of valid frame sizes.
Also watch out for Cisco's ISL protocol causing
"mini-gi
Not exactly, remember CSMA/CD (Collision Sense Multiple Access/Collision
Detect)
Collision Sense tells you to check to see if any other NIC is using the wire
before you start to transmit. However, after you start to transmit, you
should still check for collisions. After all, another NIC (in error)
i had experienced a huge increase in runts in a router which came from a novell server
after groupwise was installed.Later some configuration changes were made and this
reduced the runts but the runts only disappeared after it was unnstalled .

Often times bad NIC cards are to blame

Runts are packets that come in below the 64 byte minimum of an ethernet
packet, and a giant on an ehternet medium, are packets that are above 1518
