He might be thinking of the MMS adjustment as a result of PMTUD, which most people forget about BTW, but I agree: PMTUD isn't about TCP, so tossing TCP in there just makes it a very odd question. On Thu, Jul 5, 2012 at 4:04 PM, Terry Baranski <terry.baranski.list@gmail.com> wrote:

No, path MTU discovery is the answer I'm fishing for.
The "TCP specifically" part of the question confused the heck out of me. PMTUD is an IP function in every way as far as I'm concerned. (If you're saying that the way it's actually coded makes it more like a TCP function, I'd still change the wording unless you're hiring people to write network drivers.)
