The simple solutions are: - - use 'ip tcp adjust-mss 1400' on a router seeing traffic in the
clear to > force MSS to 1400 so IP datagram size to 1420 (of course 1400 is just a >guess), this will cover all TCP traffic
- - set 'ip mtu 1500' on the GRE tunnel interface (yes 1500 bytes)
Just for clarity, with a mss option set to 1400, the ip packet size will be 1440. _______________________________________________ firewall-wizards mailing list firewall-wizards () honor icsalabs com http://honor.icsalabs.com/mailman/listinfo/firewall-wizards
