Abstract
A method for transmitting data over a network is disclosed along with destination and source terminals in a data communication network. The method comprises receiving a connection request at a destination terminal; determining, at the destination terminal, a field length for the recording of an element in a data packet to be transmitted to the destination terminal; and sending a connection reply indicating the field length. The destination terminal comprises a processor for determining a field length upon receipt of a connection request from a source terminal, where the field length is used by the source terminal for recording a element in a data packet to be transmitted to the destination terminal. The source terminal comprises a processor for recording an element in a field of a data packet having a field length determined by a destination terminal. The elements in a field of a data packet include, without limitation, a sequence number in a sequence number field, a source identifier in a source identifier field, and a first packet offset in a first packet offset field.
