: Unplug the device and restart the software to reset the handshake.
In many networking and hardware protocols (like those used in industrial automation, specialized USB drivers, or custom APIs), is a hexadecimal identifier. It often represents a Status Update or a Response Header . the data packet with type-0x96- returned was misformatted
Offset 0: type (0x96) Offset 1: length Offset 2-3: sequence number Offset 4+: payload (variable) Checksum: last 2 bytes : Unplug the device and restart the software
tcpdump -i eth0 -s 0 -w type0x96_trace.pcap 'ether proto 0x96 or ip proto 150' specialized USB drivers
If type-0x96 packets can be fragmented (split across multiple physical frames), and one fragment is lost or reordered, the reassembled packet will have missing data, causing a length mismatch.
