The problem in this case is probably the load balancing systems that NSI is now using, which have known bogus behaviour when interacting with PMTU-D. NSI should disable PMTU-D on their servers until they can fix this problem; fixing this problem probably involves having the vendor for their load balancing boxes fixing their broken software.What load balancing systems are known to mess up with PMTU-D ?
I would suggest that it appears that NSI is, as has previously been mentioned on the list and f5's web page, using f5's BIG/ip boxes.
