No, it can't. Beause we already print "Unknown". The malformed packet is
(correctly) printed because the packet looks differently from what we expect
it to look like: It's 64 bytes in length.
14 Ethernet
4 802.1Q
20 IP
8 UDP
20 HSRP
Sum: 66 but the dissector has access to only 64 bytes.
So it looks like the opcode 3 packets look differently from the 0-2 opcode
packets. We need to know how an opcode 3 packet looks like.
