Someone correct me if I'm wrong: All the "fragments" have the TCP/UDP/IP headers, or else they can't be routed to their destination. "Fragmentation" is just a way of breaking up the data payload into smaller packets, but it puts individual headers on each packet. MTU is the total size of each packet, including the header. GM

Fragmentation for UDP/TCP: * Only the first fragment contains the UDP or TCP header, not the sequencial fragments? Fragementation for IP packets * every fragmented packet will contains ip header? MTU 1500 bytes, doesn't it mean the data payload can not exceed 1500 bytes or the whole packet size(payload+header) can not exceed 1500 bytes?
