Hi everyone, I have been going through an example of transmission of one 1280-byte packet from one node to another in a LowPAN. This transmission involves a mesh header, fragmentation header and a header compression header on the first packet. Subsequent packet don't have header compression headers. On the sender side the situation is easy but on the receiver side I don't see any stopping condition for the processing code of the the stacked headers. For example how does the receiver processing code knows that the next byte after the current header is actually another header or the payload ? Does the last header in the stack have to be a dispatch header ? If so what is the dispatch value (from figure 8 in the draft ) for fragment that carries only payload data ? Am I missing something ?
Thank you in advance. vlasios
