So your interpretation agrees with mine, that's great.

I have already published the output of `ifconfig re1`, here it is again,
do you think anything important is missing? This is the very interface
where the capture was taken:

$ ifconfig re1
re1: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500
        
options=8209b<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING,VLAN_HWCSUM,WOL_MAGIC,LINKSTATE>
        ether c4:12:f5:33:c9:7c
        inet 192.168.170.5/24 broadcast 192.168.170.255
        inet6 fe80::c612:f5ff:fe33:c97c%re1/64 scopeid 0x2
        inet6 2001:470:ecba:3::5/64
        media: Ethernet autoselect (1000baseT <full-duplex>)
        status: active
        nd6 options=21<PERFORMNUD,AUTO_LINKLOCAL>

Why could that be? Hardware problem or software/FreeBSD glitch?

Very likely. That's why I'm here looking for advice and enlightenment.
