NWP and Ethernet payload limits

[Vibhav Pant]

While not an immediate concern, how will NWP deal with broadcasting neighbour lists and announcement if the final packet size exceeds the maximum payload length for Ethernet packets (1500 bytes)?

[Michel Machado]

These large messages must be broken up into as many packets as needed. Of course, all packets composing a single message must have information in their headers to enable receivers to recompose the original message.
