     68 * Supports a maximum of 4 interfaces, by convention 0 for outgoing, 1 for incoming, 2 for other, and 3 is unused. 
     69 * There is at least one traceset which is known to have an ERF type of "0", just to be annoying, libtrace attempts to account for this.

     71=== Native Linux interface (int:) === 
     72 * Currently supports a fast way of retrieving the timestamp of the packet from kernel space using ancillary data. 
     73 * Doesn't support uploading bpf filters to the kernel (yet) 
     74 * Supports only incoming and outgoing direction, attempts to set other directions will fail. (3.0.3+)
