I noticed that all of my links between my Junipers and my Bigirons that
are doing vlan tagging have about 4 "L3 incompletes" per second
(monitor interface ge-x/y/z).
Per juniper:

swcmdref55-interfaces/html/vt-monitor2.html
◦ L3 incompletes
This counter is incremented when the incoming packet fails Layer 3
(usually IPv4) sanity checks of the header. For example, a frame with
less than 20 bytes of available IP header would be discarded and this
counter would be incremented.
Has anyone ever bothered to try to figure out what these packets are?
