Greetings all,
I have uploaded a new set of DTN2 patches to the Sourceforge site:
https://sourceforge.net/p/dtn/patches/8/

These patches contain the modifications used in operations at Marshall Space Flight Center (MSFC) in support of the International Space Station and several recent additions that will be rolled into it in the future. MSFC hosts a DTN2 based gateway node on the ground that communicates via LTP over UDP with an onboard ION gateway node to provide DTN capabilities to payloads.
Included are:

·         Performance improvements

·         IPN Scheme support fixes and enhancements

·         LTP over UDP (LTPUDP) Convergence Layer

·         LTPUDP with LTP Authentication extensions

·         STCP Convergence Layer (ION innovation)

·         External Router enhancements and our EHS Router

·         Extended Class of Service support (only EHS Router makes use of it for routing decisions)

·         Aggregate Custody Signal support

·         Delay Tolerant Payload Conditioning

Also included in this release are updates to the DTN and LTP Wireshark dissectors. The updated dissectors are uploaded here for those that would like to build from the Wireshark source code. They will also be uploaded to wireshark.org soon.

Thanks for giving them a try and please let me know if you run into any issues,
DZ
