> So for everyone else also running multiple instances of experimental hardware on their local network I have added an additional 2 Byte magic number using the all so original 0xCAFE (little endian) allowing packet parsers to distinguish between this ASIC’s experimental traffic and your other experimental traffic.

Just saying, it's good form to do network stuff in big endian. Although since it's already done I dunno how hard you should work to retcon that to 0xFECA...

If your 0xCAFE gives you a 0xFECA1A55, stop going there...
