Hi Team,
Pls can you feedback on below queries -
- If we have enabled sub - i/f of a phy port of a router and we have defined IP MTU of 1500B @ sub i/f but we left 9000 Bytes MTU on the corresponding phy i/f, in this case IPv4 traffic leaving the router through sub i/f will face the constrain of 1500 B or 9000 B MTU?
- Same thing as mentioned in ph#1 above, but now we have enabled L2LAG (Eth-Trunk) on two phy ports, such that MTU on the sub i/f is 1500 B and MTU on the individual Phy port is 9000B. Now in this case IPv4 traffic leaving the router through sub i/f will face the constrain of 1500 B or 9000 B MTU?
- Is it possible to define the max segment size with UDP as well? With TCP, I saw the cmds in one of the topics @ networkless i.e. (config-if)#ip tcp adjust-mss 1360 …
Actually we have a router in b/w the PSN which can’t handle MTU>1600B and also can’t fragment the pkt if already fragmented before on the path by previous router … so if this pre-fragmented pkt is still >1600B, it will drop w/o sending out from egress port …
So, I was thinking to limit the MTU size at the source and along with that was thinking to limit the MSS size as well on the same source, to eliminate any fragmentation … but as source can generate both TCP & UDP based datagram, so just wanted to know can we limit MSS for UDP as well, just like we can do for TCP?
Best Reg.
