Hi,

my take on this is that, for non-final fragment, the packet size must
not be smaller than 1280 bytes. there's no valid use for smaller
fragments (unless you have special network with MTU < 1280).
I tend to disagree. I do think there are cases where it makes sense to
have smaller non-final fragments. One example I can think about right
away is that there is a tunnel somewhere between the source and the
destination. In this case I would limit myself to a fragment size of
less than 1280 to avoid further fragmentation.
