Hello, Did something change in 6.2? If my mtu size on rl0 is 1280 it won't accept a larger incomming packet. kernel: rl0: discard oversize frame (ether type 800 flags 3 len 1514 > max 1294) I don't think it worked this way in the past. Won't this affect pmtud? man page for ifconfig says mtu limits size of "transmission" not reception. "mtu n Set the maximum transmission unit of the interface to n, default is interface specific." TIA, Steve -- "They that give up essential liberty to obtain temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety." (Ben Franklin) "The course of history shows that as a government grows, liberty decreases." (Thomas Jefferson)
