Hi folks, I have a doubt regarding the fragment header. Why do we need
the M flag in the “fragment header” at all for IPv6? Having the
fragment header itself would tell it’s a fragment and would distinguish
between the first fragment and a non-fragment. In IPv4 we did not have a fragment header, so the M flag was
logical to have for distinguishing the first and a non fragment. That said; how should the case where we have the fragment
header and both the Fragment Offset and the M flag is 0 be
treated? Thanks, Vishwas |
