Plain DSA puts four bytes of header between the MAC source address and
the EtherType/Length.
EDSA puts in an 8 byte header, and includes an Ethertype value of
0xdada. Having that ethertype value makes it more obvious what is
going on. And if you have a recent version of tcpdump, it will decode
the header.
