Abstract
A node, and a system including a first node, supporting message transport and segmentation in a communications network having a plurality of nodes, comprising a memory including a database for storing a plurality of segmentation support capability test results, wherein the memory further includes a program module adapted to send a first segmented message, a first segmentation support test message, and a first segmentation support response message, and to receive a second segmented message, a second segmentation support test message, and a second segmentation support response message. The system also includes a second node in electronic communication with the first node, wherein the second node is adapted to receive the segmentation support response message including the segmentation support capability result.
