reading draft-thubert-6lowpan-simple-fragment-recovery-05 and came up
with a question.
Section 4 indicates that "The recovery mechanism must support highly
fragmented packets, with a maximum of 32 fragments per packet." I
agree that 32 128 byte fragments is a lot of fragments, but I'm
concerned: there is discussion of allowing 9K packets. What happens
when a 9K packet goes to a sensor? since 9K/128 is on the order of 70,
you are going to have to reply "packet too big". If that is
acceptable, why not limit this to 16 fragments, 128*16 being greater
that 1500 bytes?
Where did "32" come from?
