Hi

I have an application were I need to send around 4k of data using UDP. What I would like to know is how I go about sending this using LWIP. I can send small packets no problem. I first allocate a pbuf. Then copy my data to the pbuf. Then send the data. But sending 4k of data doesnt work. I realise that the Ethernet has a max payload of 1500 bytes. Is there a different way to send large amounts of data? Do I need to configure something and then do it the same way I have previously? I am using a embedded TIVA micro controller.

Thanks

Jon

Have you enabled IP fragmentation? (IP_FRAG)

Or you could just break up the data yourself, add a little custom header, and essentially fragment the data yourself.  Depending on what's in this data, you could add sequence numbers and a way for the peer to report they missed a chunk?  How often are you sending these blocks of data?
