Hi Tim, This is for Cablehome, it borrows much from the packetCable spec. What are the sizes you've seen for this context? As for the UDP upper limit ;) I don't it would be wise to grab that much memory on this embedded device.

If you can confirm the usage scenario (e.g. is this a PacketCable compliant MTA ?) I can give you a better feel for size limits involved.

Statically allocating 4k on an embedded system is a little heavy so I'd like get a ballpark idea for the upper boudries on the reply messages. What are the largest numbers you've seen?

In particular on a multi homed system the number of addresses can be quite large. ii) Whether the KDC is a Microsoft KDC because PAC data will be stored in tickets. These, along with PKINIT requirements are the major contributors to large tickets, and hence large request/response packets to/from the KDC. Cheers, Tim. -----Original Message----- From: Naud, Eric [ mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ] Sent: 21 July 2003 16:23 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Maximum AP and AS message sizes Hi All, Can anyone tell me what the AP and AS message size maximums would be and what factor are to be considered? I'm using PKINIT so I know my AS request will be rather large due to the certificate. Thank!
