oading, which is a better fix than any mentioned here

this is the only resource i found that mentioned disabling checksum offloading: https://www.talos.dev/v1.11/talos-guides/network/ethernet-config/

By patching the machine configuration? @smira

Yes, I guess you need to try and verify the fix.

I think it does workaround issue with vxlan.
