How does IPv6 do that - isn't MTU dependent on the ethernet packet size and router support for the same?
When was the last time you saw anything that didn't support 1500 byte MTU?
This morning :-) I have an IPv4 setup which uses IPIP tunnels on the back of LVS, and those tunnels reduce my MTU to 1440.
Still, how does IPv6 avoid MTU/MRU & fragmentation issues? PMTU is surely still required.
IPv6 uses path MTU discovery to determine the maximum size. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Path_mtu_discovery -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
