Hello,
is it possible for my proto to read the length of the UDP packet it's carried on? Now, if my_proto packet is more than 1472 bytes long it's split over IP packets. 

For example. If it's 2190 bytes:

-The first packet is a UDP packet containg 1472 bytes
-The second packet is an IP packet containing 718 bytes
I know I can reassemble the whole packet setting the 'Reassemble fragmented IP datagrams' Preference but I'd like my_proto to do it automatically, that's why it needs to know the length of the whole UDP packet. 

Thanx
