Title : Operational issues with Tiny Fragments in IPv6
Author(s) : V. Manral
Filename : draft-manral-v6ops-tiny-fragments-issues-03.txt
Pages : 8
Date : 2008-9-9
IPv6 fragmentation allows fragments to be sent only by the source of
a packet. The Fragment header is used by an IPv6 source to send a
packet larger than would fit in the path MTU to its destination.
Firewalls generally use 5-tuples to filter out packets. However there
are cases where fragmentation can be used to disguise TCP packets
from IP filters used in routers and hosts. This document specifies
where tiny fragments can be issues.
