** Description changed:

- [Impact]
+ Impact]
  
-  * An explanation of the effects of the bug on users and
- 
-  * justification for backporting the fix to the stable release.
- 
-  * In addition, it is helpful, but not required, to include an
-    explanation of how the upload fixes this bug.
+  * On virtualization hosts disable GRO and LRO, otherwise, with
+    receive offload on, the guests will receive packets that are
+    larger than the MTU. This can cause issues in certain scenarios, 
+    e.g. when the guest is a VPN server that needs to forward the
+    (inner) packet onward.
  
  [Test Plan]
  
-  * detailed instructions how to reproduce the bug
- 
-  * these should allow someone who is not familiar with the affected
-    package to reproduce the bug and verify that the updated package fixes
-    the problem.
- 
-  * if other testing is appropriate to perform before landing this update,
-    this should also be described here.
+  * The feature does not exist right now.
  
  [Where problems could occur]
  
-  * Think about what the upload changes in the software. Imagine the change is
-    wrong or breaks something else: how would this show up?
- 
-  * It is assumed that any SRU candidate patch is well-tested before
-    upload and has a low overall risk of regression, but it's important
-    to make the effort to think about what ''could'' happen in the
-    event of a regression.
- 
-  * This must '''never''' be "None" or "Low", or entirely an argument as to why
-    your upload is low risk.
- 
-  * This both shows the SRU team that the risks have been considered,
-    and provides guidance to testers in regression-testing the SRU.
- 
- [Other Info]
-  
-  * Anything else you think is useful to include
-  * Anticipate questions from users, SRU, +1 maintenance, security teams and 
the Technical Board
-  * and address these questions in advance
+  * The settings exist since systemd-232 which means Bionic and up can use
+    this feature
  
  [Original Description]
  
  https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.link.html has a
  number of [Link] options which I need to use for a flaky network card
  (TCPSegmentationOffload, TCP6SegmentationOffload,
  GenericSegmentationOffload, GenericReceiveOffload, LargeReceiveOffload)
  which are not exposed via netplan.
