Ethernet

Frame size

The frame sizes omit the preamble ==

1. define ETH_ALEN 6 /* Octets in one ethernet addr */
2. define ETH_HLEN 14 /* Total octets in header. */
3. define ETH_ZLEN 60 /* Min. octets in frame sans FCS */
4. define ETH_DATA_LEN 1500 /* Max. octets in payload */
5. define ETH_FRAME_LEN 1514 /* Max. octets in frame sans FCS */
