This interface can do checksum validation for the IP stack on both
receiving and transmitting data.
Some interfaces do not have sufficient buffer storage to store frames
above a certain MTU-size completely.
The driver for the interface might disable hardware checksum validation
if the MTU is set above the hardcoded limit.
