Good day,
I'm in the process of translation release notes and have trouble
understanding and thus interpreting the term 'checksum offload' which is
a feature of nge(4) and lge(4) drivers. Does it mean that the
controllers are able to compute TCP/IP checksums in hardware thus taking
off load from CPU? Don't hesitate to tell me I'm stupid and this has
nothing to do with TCP/IP :)
Oh, and what's a jumbogram?
Can someone clarify this with one or two sentences to a man with a
negligible Ethernet knowledge?
Thanks!
