Headers encoded by 6lowpan-hc must be contiguous. In other words,
once you encounter an uncompressed header, all subsequent headers are
not encoded by 6lowpan-hc.

Hi, everyone.
I have a question about compressing series of IPv6 Extension Headers.
+-----+-----+-----+--------------+-------------------------
+--------------------+-----
| NHC | NH | len | uncompressed | Non-encoded ext. header |
compressed or not? | ...
+-----+-----+-----+--------------+-------------------------
+--------------------+-----
In my understanding, the Next Header field should be carried in-line
when the next extension header cannot be encoded due to its length
(greater than 255), right?
If it is right, a non-encoded extension header is followed. Then,
how can I distinguish whether the followed next header is compressed
or not?
Thank you for reading. :)
