I would say the UAS should send back an error to the client (e.g. 513 Message Too Large) with an indication that it should use a TCP transport instead

Hi,

Fragmentation and reassembly of packets greater than MTU will happen at the
IP layer.
Hence you must send a response bigger than MTU on UDP itself.
(Although it is not RECOMMENDED to send packets bigger than MTU on UDP, it
is unavoidable in this case)


Hope this helps.

Sridhar

Hi,

     UAS receives a request  via UDP ( sent-protocol in via is UDP ).
     The response to be sent has big body and exceeding the maximum
transmission unit.
     whether UAS can send the response via TCP  ?
