      The routing algorithm must know how large two fragments are to be able to
      decide that it is safe to merge them or if it should resubmit without waiting
      for the second part. When these two fragments have a too different size, it is
      not possible to guess right in every situation.
      
      The user could easily configure the MTU of the attached cards so that one
      fragment is forwarded and the other one is added to the fragments table to wait
      for the missing part.
      
      For even sized packets, it is possible to split it so that the resulting
      packages are equal sized by ignoring the old non-fragment header at the
      beginning of the original packet.
      
      This still creates different sized fragments for uneven sized packets.
