Useful next steps
Know the interpretation limits
Paste JSON with mtu and layers [{name, bytes}]. Usable payload is MTU minus the supplied encapsulation bytes; defaults, padding and path discovery are not inferred.
Keep the complete report
Search and sort apply to the first 200 rows. Download JSON or CSV for every row and the assumptions.
