Some transports (e.g., TCP) have the abilitiy to adjust their message sizes to avoid IP fragmentation, however no such capability is built into the UDP transport. UDP applications such as DHCP must therefore have a means to perform their own segmentation prior to submitting their data to UDP/IP in order to avoid IP fragmentation. This document specifies a segmentation/reassembly capability for DHCP using SEAL.}, }
