Monitoring a tcpdump between two systems, a FreeBSD 9.1 system has the
following interface:
msk0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500
options=c011b<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING,TSO4,VLAN_HWTSO,LINKSTATE>
ether 00:11:2f:2a:c7:03
inet 10.0.1.199 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 10.0.1.255
inet6 fe80::211:2fff:fe2a:c703%msk0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1
nd6 options=29<PERFORMNUD,IFDISABLED,AUTO_LINKLOCAL>
media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX
<full-duplex,flowcontrol,rxpause,txpause>)
status: active
It sent the following packet: (data content abbreviated)
02:14:42.081617 IP 10.0.1.199.443 > 10.0.1.2.61258: Flags [P.], seq 930:4876,

The indicated packet length is 3946 and the load of data shown is that size.
The MTU on both interfaces is 1500. The receiving system received 3 packets.
There is a router and switch between them. One of them fragmented that packet.
This is part of a SSL/TLS exchange and one side or the other is hanging on this
and just dropping the connection. I suspect the packet size is the issue.
ssldump complains about the packet too and stops monitoring. Could this
possibly be related to the hardware checksums?
