Ethereal-users: [Ethereal-users] Illegal fragments
Note: This archive is from the project's previous web site, ethereal.com. This list is no longer active.
Hi,
I am getting the error message “Illegal fragments” when viewing a snoop
of traffic between my WAP server and client.
The server is using WTP SAR to segment the reply, and all seems fine
until the last packet is reached (WTP TTR flag 1). At this point the “Illegal
fragments” message is report against the last segmented packet, and looking at
the “WTP Fragments” link under the WTP section it reports error “Conflicting data in fragment
overlap: True” for the last packet, and then this message plus “Fragment
overlap: True” when the server attempts to retransmit the final packet.
I
can’t see anything about this error anywhere, and it appears that the data in
some bytes of the payload is overlapping. However I can’t see why this is the
case, looking at the header bytes of each WTP segment, and since I know that
the server is generally reliable in this area.
Can
someone provide an explanation as to what exactly the problem might be?
Thanks
