Question: Receiving Packets as different segments

[arun1587]

Hi,
Whenever I send (ipv6) packets of size > 56Bytes (well within tunnel MTU of 1500 Bytes) to tun_echo example, I receive the contents echo'ed back in 2 or more packets. ep.Read() returns data of size not more than 56Bytes per call.
Any settings/configuration on endpoint that can give me the entire TCP payload in a single call to Read() ?

running it on Ubuntu 16.04
thanks,

Can you include a packet trace? When you say send packets, I assume you mean you're using ep.Write? (I'm just wondering if maybe there's a new connection and you're looking at the end of the handshake?)

the payload of length 506 (packet #4) that is sent from 192.168.11.1 -> 192.168.11.11 is being echo'ed back in three different packets of sizes 76 (packet #6), 256 (packet #8), 174 (packet #10).
I use netcat to send messages to the echo example in netstack.
