The MAC layer should only look at data in the (MAC) frame header. Looking farther should get you a visit by the Protocol Police for layer violation. Remember that MANET is not specific to 802.11 (a misunderstanding that you're hinting that you have by the reference to RTS/CTS). The MANET protocols are supposed to work in _any_ network with high route volatility. Looking at packet contents beyond the frame header would destroy this generality. (This is an easy misunderstanding to get into since WiFi is so common in commercial world. Most all academic experiments dealing with MANET use WiFi underneath because it's cheap and available). _______________________________________________ manet mailing list manet@ietf.org https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/manet
