FPM always starts it scan from l3 which will mostly IP. Now, if we can to
start from Ethernet, then we should be "stack start l2-start".

"match layer" should be informing which layer it should look for. Since two
IP headers are there. We tell for layer 2 IP header look for prot eq 4 and
layer 3 IP header look for prot eq IP. Layer 1 should be Ethernet.
