      <abstract>
	 <t>   Considering that an LLN frame can have a MAC payload below 100 bytes,
   an IPv6 packet might be fragmented into more than 10 fragments at the
   6LoWPAN layer.  In a 6LoWPAN mesh-under network, the fragments can be
   forwarded individually across the mesh, whereas a route-over mesh
   network, a fragmented 6LoWPAN packet must be reassembled at every
   hop, which causes latency and congestion.  This draft introduces a
   simple protocol to forward individual fragments across a route-over
   mesh network, and, regardless of the type of mesh, recover the loss
   of individual fragments across the mesh and protect the network
   against bloat with a minimal flow control.
