A method begins by a processing module generating a payload of a dispersed storage network frame by generating a transaction number field to include a transaction number corresponding to a write request operation and generating one or more slice payload sections, wherein each slice payload section includes generating a slice name field to include a slice name corresponding to an encoded data slice, generating a slice revision numbering field to include a revision number of the slice name, generating a slice length field to include a length of the encoded data slice, and generating a slice payload field to include the encoded data slice. The method continues with the processing module generating a protocol header by generating a payload length field including a payload length representing length of the transaction number field and length of the one or more slice payload sections and generating remaining fields of the protocol header. |
