parsing is used as long as the above guideline is met. IP and TCP header offsets are calculated
according to memory data structures. For example, if VLAN tag is inserted by hardware, offsets do
not change.
The IPCB byte count specifies the number of bytes of transmit data in the immediate data area
(from offset 20h and on).
Maximum TCP Payload / TBD Number and Transmit
Threshold
When the Large Send mode is selected, this field is interpreted as the Maximum TCP Payload.
Otherwise, this 16-bit field is interpreted as the TBD number and Transmit Threshold. The TBD
number specifies the total number of TBDs associated with this IPCB. The Transmit Threshold is
defined in
parameters that relate to that mode are ignored by the device hardware. Mode bits should obey
consistency rules since not all combinations are allowed. The result of a non-supported
combination is unpredictable.

If the Scheduled Send bit is set, the transmission of the frame
associated with the IPCB is delayed until the internal
scheduling counter of the controller reaches the scheduling
value.
Bits 16:0 are the time stamp and bits 19:17 may be used to
specify time window.
This field specifies the maximum number of bytes to be
transmitted in the TCP payload of an Ethernet frame that is
part of the Large Send. All frames use this size except the last
one. This field is ignored when the Large Send bit is clear.
In units of 8 bytes, this field defines the number of bytes that
should be present in the Transmit FIFO before transmission
starts. It is relevant only if the checksum requires the whole
frame to be in Transmit FIFO. The value of this parameter
should be in the range of 1h to E0h.
