The eTSEC controller (first included in parts from late 2005 like

the 8548) has the ability to perform TCP, UDP, and IP checksums

In order to use VLAN, please consult Linux documentation on
25
21
configuring VLANs. The gianfar driver supports hardware insertion and
26
22
extraction of VLAN headers, but not filtering. Filtering will be
27
