Hi.

I've a seemingly running & healthy kea-dhcp4 but upon start 
it logs:
...
Dec 18 14:08:18 kea-dhcp4[1947617]: 2025-12-18 14:08:18.269 
ERROR [kea-dhcp4.packets/1947617.139743392213120] 
DHCP4_BUFFER_RECEIVE_FAIL error on attempt to receive 
packet: Truncated DHCPv4 packet (len=72) received, at least 
236 is expected.

This is on Centos 9 and in case it might matter, with bridge 
ifaces created by networkmanager.
Wanted to ask if it's something to worry about and if so 
then how to "fix" it?
thanks, L.
