In a 6LoWPAN mesh-under mesh network, the fragments can be forwarded individually across the mesh, whereas a route-over mesh network, a fragmented 6LoWPAN packet must be reassembled at every hop, which causes latency and congestion. This draft introduces a simple protocol to forward individual fragments across a route-over mesh network, and, regardless of the type of mesh, recover the loss of individual fragments across the mesh and protect the network against bloat with a minimal flow control. Please note that it may take a couple of minutes from the time of submission until the htmlized version and diff are available at tools.ietf.org.
