Given that these devices have a common link mtu (otherwise they would
have trouble forming adjcency over the broadcast domain) the opfv3
payload will always be sized for the v6 network which means the ipv4
variant of the packet packet will always be 20 bytes smaller due to the
ipv6 header being 20 bytes larger then the v4 one..
