Re: Incomplete Packet Fragments Discarded

[Martin Roesch <roesch () sourcefire com>]

That means that you're using the defrag preprocessor instead of the
newer frag2 preprocessor and that you should switch to frag2.  :)  The
defrag preprocessor had some fairly nasty failure modes and has since
been superceded by frag2, so I'd recommend using that for now.
