Subject: Path MTU discovery cutoff
Sender: owner-freebsd-net@FreeBSD.ORG
Precedence: bulk
X-Loop: FreeBSD.org


     RFC 1191 specifies a minimum path MTU estimate of 68 bytes for a
     participating host. The FreeBSD 3.4 implementation uses a cutoff
     of 296 bytes. Why does it have a larger minimum?
