-MAP header has the same endianness of the IP packet.
+MAP header fields are in big endian format.
Packet format::
- Bit 0 1 2-7 8 - 15 16 - 31
+ Bit 0 1 2-7 8-15 16-31

+or data packet. Command packet is used for transport level flow control. Data
packets are standard IP packets.
-Reserved bits are usually zeroed out and to be ignored by receiver.
+Reserved bits must be zero when sent and ignored when received.
-Padding is number of bytes to be added for 4 byte alignment if required by
-hardware.
+Padding is the number of bytes to be appended to the payload to
+ensure 4 byte alignment.
Multiplexer ID is to indicate the PDN on which data has to be sent.
Payload length includes the padding length but does not include MAP header
length.

+Valid bit indicates whether the partial checksum is calculated and is valid.
