[Explanation: Ethernet packets need padding to min size. I tried to get an April 1st RFC and failed, for a recommended sequence of padding, but we implemented anyway in , as a way to avoid leaking previous content of buffer and confirming padding has been applied. This is the defined padding on a simple ping packet]

[More explanation: A "ping" is an echo request, hence context here]
