- ---------------------------- I'm sure its important. All I'm saying is, icmp can get rate-limited (many times it does) which could possibly lead to packet loss and even drops while traversing hops. regards, /virendra
Mark Smith wrote:The non-announcers, because they're also breaking PMTUD.Really? How? Remember, we're not talking about RFC1918 space, where there is a BCP that says we should filter it at the edge. We're talking about public IP space, that just doesn't happen to be announced outside of a particular AS. Thanks, -mark
