(1 ) Heb nephilim, meaning "violent" or "causing to fall" (Gen 6: 4) These were the violent tyrants of those days, those who fell upon others The word may also be derived from a root signifying "wonder," and hence "monsters" or "prodigies " In Num 13: 33 this name is given to a Canaanitish tribe, a race of large stature, "the sons of Anak " The Revised Version, in these passages, simply transliterates the original, and reads "Nephilim "
Giants are frames which are longer than the maximum Ethernet size (1518 or 1522 bytes) Giant packets usually occur when you have a jabbering node on your network; one that is continuously transmitting, or transmitting improperly for short bursts-probably due to a bad transmitter on the NIC Giants can also be caused by packets being corrupted as they are transmitted, either by the addition of garbage signals, or by the corruption of the bits that indicate frame size
